Do you prefer a Wired or Wireless Mouse?

I've used a wired mouse for a long time now for my desktop, but ever since I got a laptop I've been using a Microsoft wireless mouse. It has been great! I've dropped it & beat it up a lot, but it is still kicking. I use it all the time and I've only had to change the battery about two or three times since I've had it, and I've had it a little over two years now.

Same here. If you have a desktop & never travel, then a wired mouse may be more suitable for you. But, if you travel or have a laptop you bring along with you to places, then considering a wireless is an option. I don't like changing batteries either, but since it takes one double A, I've only had to use 3 or 4 batteries. I was going to buy rechargeable batteries and a charger, but since it has only needed a few batteries since I've bought it a couple years ago, I've settled with changing batteries.
 
I'm using Wired at the moment, my wireless one went through batteries too quick.
 
Wired, the wireless mouses I have had in the past are just so unresponsive and at times it takes them several seconds to even begin to move.
 
I use a wireless, when the set me up on my dad's old computer they had me using a wired mouse. I was having such a hard time that my mouse was brought in lol.
 
Wired. I never felt the need for a wireless. Plus, the wire keeps my mouse wrangled, so it can't run away. Yee-haw! :P
 
The all-in-one PC uses a wireless mice which came with the unit itself, but I have a wired one for my ultrabook.
