Note that mine has an actual middle but= ton, and although
it's hard to see from the picture, the text= implies this version
does too. It may well be the same.

Hi all,

Acme has become my main text editor and I'm in the market for a good mouse with a decent middle click (i.e. B2). If product recommendations

I'm currently using an Elecom mouse designed for use with CAD programs =
that has a true middle button, and it does a serviceable job. But it
feels cheap and I fear it will break with much more use. I also recently tried a gaming mouse -- a Roccat KAIN 100 Aimo -- after reading reviews that its scroll wheel had a decent click. But while it's quite a nice <= br /> mouse, the middle click requires more pressure than I'd prefer.
Many thanks in advance!
