I don't have any suggestions I'm afraid, but I just wanted to say that I agree with you. A lot of of the modern mice are more about appearance than functionality. It is the same with keyboards. It's not easy to find a good classic keyboard anymore.

I'm using one now that I'm not happy with. It's more clumsy than my old one and the keys are more cramped together. Did buy an adapter to use my old favourite keyboard, but that does not work on my PC unfortunately.

All I want, is a conventional mouse shape (non of these weird shapes), a left button, a right button, a wheel, and wheel (middle) button. Oh, and a wire.

Nothing more.

A lot of mice these days seem to either be funny shapes, have too many buttons or have strange coloured LEDs. Maybe if there is nothing new which is good I will just get an old stock Wheel Mouse Optical.
