I've pretty much used them all—went from a Logitech to an old Microsoft Intellimouse, then to a newer Intellimouse, then to an Apple Mighty Mouse (which I've passed onto my MBP), and now a Razer mouse for my Mac Pro.

I really like the Razer; it's more "grippy" than the Intellimouse and better tracking, but still has the same basic shape. Mighty Mouse was pretty cool, but the scroll ball doesn't perfectly track 100% of the time. Had a chance to check out the new Magic Mouse at an Apple Store—loved the concept and multi-touch surface, but it's pretty uncomfortable. I didn't get the sense it tracked very well.
i didn't know Macintosh had drivers!? ;) seriously... sh!t just works. lol... thanks dude!

Logitech MX 1100:

right-click works as ctrl-click obviously, but more importantly it has programmable buttons(!), contour shape, adjustable hyper-scroll wheel, and it's wireless.

i just use the trackpad on my macbook pro even though i have a bluetooth logitech mouse sitting right next to it which i alwaus forget to use.

i seriously love the feel of the trackpad, i can be so much quicker and more accurate with it. Especially love all the two finger macro moves you can do with it.

I'm coming from windows and I have to say that i miss the precision of the mouse. I find all mice are laggy and imprecise on my mac. Maybe it's just me being picky.Can anyone recommend a good mouse for macs? any brand i don't care. Thanx
Haha, Im using Microsoft mouse, have not tried the mighty mouse yet but you can try downloading this application called Steermouse for better movement and tracking :D
