Default PC Mice

Hi guys,
I have a habbit of going through PC mice like dowly goes through his private "material" stash. So, I was woundering, Does anyone know of a Decent SUPER HEAVY DUTY pc mouse? It has to be USB, as i'm on a laptop. Incase your woundering its normally the scroll wheel that breaks.
Thanks in advance,
dan

I'm currently using a Microsoft Natural wireless 6000. Got sick of wired mice getting tangled up with rest of PC's cables.

Logitech G9x Laser Mouse



Specially built for durability, something like 10 million mouse clicks or something insane like that.


Have had the mouse for about 6 months, lovely feel, completely customizable.


You won't regret it, it's quite expensive tho for a mouse

Logitech Performance MX. Precise, solid. Only disadvanatge is for some reason it consumes the battery as if it were nothing. You need to load it every night (many other mice hold out for a week or severla weeks). Can be operated via cable and even when charging. Radio link never was a problem, and you can link it to just one receiver if your (radio) keyboard also is a Logitech. 9 buttons, programmable. Laser scans on glas surfaces as well. Wheel can be moved in steps or without. And most important: it rest absolutely comfortable and ergonomically in your hand, so if you do hours over hours with mouse work, this is a good choice.
