Cheap optical mice with scroll wheels is probably the best description of my 
mouse using habits (currently I have one Microsoft wheel mouse hooked up to 
my desktop, and a logitech mouse for my iBook .... each obtained for $13CDN).

I tend to use the touchpad on my iBook quite a bit, but if I need to get a lot 
of work done a mouse is a big help.  IMO, the first thing to do if you buy a 
Mac is to throw out the supplied mouse (a little hard to do with a touchpad 
though)

I'm also not a fan of cordless mice.  I don't like to have to remember to 
charge up my mouse or replace any batteries.
