Hey
I'm sick and tired of my mouse getting dirty, and running into debris on the mouse surface when I use it... I have decided to get one of those nice "gaming" mouse pads... I wanted to know what was good or not... I wanted to get some feedback from some of you who might have purchased them already.. any recommendations?.. thanks

I've been using a func pad for nearly 2 years now. Despite the surface is fading, and i'll be getting another shortly, the pad itself is excellent. Easy to clean, a decent amount of space, and it's 2 sided (smooth side/rough side). It has a rubber base. I've never had any trouble with it sliding around. The best part about the pad itself is, it's so easy to clean. I keep a tube of clorox wipes around my desk, so when it gets dirty I can just wipe it right off. The price is worth it for the length that you'll be using the pad.

$20.00 U.S http://www.func.net

I'm using a Ratzpad right now, but as soon as I can get 20 bucks I'm buying me a FuncPad.
My buddy has one and would have sex with it if it were up to him...

I use the Everglide mousepad and love it.

I used an Everglide for a long time, then I got a fUnc pad with my Alienware laptop. They're both pretty good, although I noticed that the fUnc works well with an optical mouse (on the "smooth" side) where the Everglide does not.

The Everglide, on the other hand, could double as a cutting board in a pinch.

I'm using the DKT cloth pad. It's a very large mousepad and is surprisingly smooth even without teflon skates. Here's the link http://www.everglide.com/dkt.htm

I can't remember the last time I used a mousepad. Do yourself a favor and buy an optical mouse! I've used the same one on "wooden" Ikea desks for at least 3 years and I've only got to clean the it's "feet" that pick up dust once in a while.

I use an optical mouse with an Everglide. Works fine for me.

I prefer plastic placemats instead of mouse pads. Shiny laminated looking ones for a ball mouse and a matte-finish placemat for an optical mouse. I buy them at clearance stores.

ok someone please explain to me why any mousepad is less likely than any other to just happen to randomly collect random dust/hair/whatever...??!?!?

I've been using a generic cloth-top rubber mousepad for about 5 years now and honestly I can't say any other mousepad has been better. The cloth surface works great with optical mice, and sticks well enough to ball mice to work fine. Go to a trade show or career fair and snag a free mousepad. I got mine when I visited the Air Force Academy 5 years ago. Why pay $20 for something that works just as well as something you can get for free?

I use the old Ratzpad, but I hear the new ones do not last as long.

Wingless

I've used the same mousepad from CompUSA for the past 12 years. Dusty and dirty as all hell but with an optical mouse that doesn't matter
