do you use a mousepad?

I do now, because I wore the finish off my desk.

I don't use a mousepad. I just have a cheap HP optical mouse, but it rarely if ever skips on our laminate wood desk. The only problem I can see is that it wears off the finish on the desk, but it's a seven year old desk, it's literally falling apart, and there are dings, scratches and worn away spots all over it. I don't care.

I have two screens so even with the mouse tracking at the highest speed, to get from one screen to the other I'd run off a mouse pad. Also they get in the way and make my desk look less tidy

How about a 11x17" mouse pad. What I use on my desktop:

You might need a better mouse which has higher DPI sensitivity.

I do because I don't want my mouse bottom get dust from desk.
Before I didn't have a mousepad, my mouse had more dust on desk than mousepad.

I found my MM to skip far too much without my mouse pad. Plus I've had the same mouse pad for like 7 years... for some reason I'm proud of that

When I use my wireless Mighty Mouse, I always use a mousepad. This is the mousepad I use (the red one). When I'm not using the Mighty Mouse, I use my MacBook's trackpad.

Where to get these or other round ones?

Thanks

Not since I started using an optical mouse. There's no need for one any more.
