Same. An instance where Microsoft hardware peripherals excel -- or still did, the last time I bought one. I don't need a bazillion buttons. I have two units, purchased a year or a few apart. Very comfortable to hold, click. Clear, perceptive registration upon click. Comfortable wheel scrolling. Similar to how some Microsoft keyboards are -- or once were -- well regarded, in particular some of their ergonomic models. Wireless (of various forms) peripherals keep having security issues. And then I remember a meeting a few months ago where the fellow's mouse's battery had died, and things got a bit panicked until he managed to find and dig out his old wired mouse.
