I typically use a mouse with my computer, not the other way around. :)

If I am on the road I use the track pad, if I am at a desk and there is room I will almost always plug in a mouse.
 
yeah, i think that a mouse is helpful sometimes.
wireless mouse, like the bluetooth mighty mouse, becomes very helpful when on the road.
 
When working in Photoshop I use my Mighty Mouse. I also use it for general browsing if I am at my desk, However, I rarely sit at my desk to do anything other than Photoshop. I never take it when I travel. Batteries last forever with as little as I use it.
 
I think I'll eventually pick up the BT Mighty Mouse, but for now I'm just sticking to the trackpad as I don't really have a use (yet) for the actual mouse.
 
I tend to use a mouse (a Bluetooth Dell one at the moment), but sometimes, I end up forgetting that I'm using a mouse and use the trackpad instead lol :)
 
My MacBook spends about 75% of it's time at my desk at home, and although I originally planned on purchasing a bluetooth mouse shortly after purchase, I never ended up buying one and don't regret it at all, the size of the trackpad on the computer is perfect.
 
I use a desk when I can, and when I do I use the MS wireless mouse. At this particular moment, using trackpad, ( haven't unpacked mouse yet today).
 
BT mighty mouse about 90 percent of the time. But the macbook trackpad is the best trackpad i have ever used. Im more of a mouse guy
 
I use it on a desk with a mouse almost all the time.

MacBooks get too hot to use as a laptop.
 
Why, yes, I do. Habit started when I had my iBook and it continued onto my MacBook. I'll use it as a laptop when I need to, though.
 
hehe does anyone here use a pro mouse? haha they're not that handy cuz you can't scroll but they're cool lookin:D i lke to use mine when im afraid to get my macbook dirty:cool:which isn't very often. i would like a MM though they're a lot more useful. but i keep hearing that the trackball gets dirty over time and is eventually useless:( but i want one! o well, my pro mouse is pretty:D
 
Guys, the big square thing just below the keyboard, is the Trackpad. And using it eliminates the use of a mouse. :)
 
well to be honest when i am on the macbook i use a combination of the trackpad and the mouse. I usually use the trackpad to scroll down pages, its so easy, and dare i say fun!
 
i use the mouse because i find it a little easier. .
i can't imagine using photoshop without it. . i even have a . . oh, what's it called? a tablet! yes! (wow. .)
but i like using a mouse.
 
i use a mouse and keyboard (random creative mouse and apple pro keyboard) and use it as a desktop when im home otherwise its on my lap or in my backpack :p
