Not exactly sure.

I know its not a ball mouse, and its wired. But not sure if its either optical or laser.

Wired, I tried a wireless mouse a while ago. I play only P.C. games, and a wired mouse is much more responsive. I have a Logitech 5 button scroll mouse..

Here we go. I use a laser, wireless mouse with gyroscopic motion sensor. The later is pretty useless.

Anyway, both have their pros and cons. Laser mouse is great, but it can get hairs on the lens and mess up the track. Ball mouse gets dust and nasty stuff on the ball and you have to clean it more.
