I had a Logitech, and didn't like it because the middle button was
wired for MS Windows. It does a 'double-click', rather than being its
own button. So when you try and drag something with it, like a menu
or a file from TkDesk, the button's signal stutters up and down, and
the menu flashes on an off. It was almost useless; I hade to hack a
Tk togglebutton that would swap my mouse buttons around.
The best mice for X are the 'mousesystems' kind, with the switch on
the bottom for 'pc-3key' or 'ms-2key'. "Precision Instruments"
(Taiwan) makes a pretty good one; that's the kind I have now.
