Yeah, it seems the more expensive the mouse, the more issues arise with the
graphics software.

This is the mouse I use and it works perfectly with no drivers. The middle
mouse button doesnt act weird like some of the other mice I've tried, so
like Luc-Eric, I've stockpiled about 3 of these just in case. The middle
mouse button on this one is somewhat stiff but overall it seems to work with
no hassle for all the programs I've used it with.

Subject: RE: [Hardware] which mouse?
my 2 cents : That cheap beige Microsoft mouse is IMHO the best over its
more expensive siblings. The middle mouse button doesn't have the problem
the other wheel buttons do, like being too high, slippery or hard to push.
It's also suprisingly better at optical tracking on any surface than the
newer mice. In fact, it is so good I am stocking a few extra in case
Microsoft drops the model. (MS often drops hardware, like the Elite
Keyboards II, and takes decisions like dropping the Insert button or
changing them around) There is no need to install drivers to use mice, and
they also work flawlessly on linux or the mac. I avoid installing mouse
drivers, or hardware that require them.
