Daily? Logitech MX-518. I'd still be using my CeBIT 2003 IntelliMouse if it hadn't been jostled by one too many trips in a backpack. Both are newer than the Max Payne mousepad that is somehow still in tolerable condition.

No, wait. I just glanced at the time on a Westclox digital alarm clock, model 22636, production code 1/10/83. That thing's older than I am. Had to check the underside again: Norcross, GA. I was unsure if "Westclox" hinted at being produced in West Germany.
