Apple’s sucky mouse.
I hate to admit it, but the Microsoft optical USB mouse is much better than Apple’s.
I know I sound ungrateful – my wife rang me from the Washington DC Apple Store to ask me if there was anything I wanted. I really wanted a new battery for my iBook, but they didn’t have any. So she got me an Apple optical mouse and a spare power supply for my iBook – the latter was very welcome (much lighter than the hockey puck which has since died anyway), but the mouse… sucks. Really sucks. I’ve used it once and it’s been in a drawer ever since. It freaks out on the wooden desk I work at – and it’s not polished at all, let alone ‘highly polished’. And I really miss the scroll wheel I have on my Microsoft mouse at work…
