[] We have a bunch of Symbolics 3600s here -- they use a mouse that has a large, polished-steel ball as the motion sensor. We find that pieces of sheet vinyl make pretty good mouse pads. This material comes in all kinds of textures, and scraps of it can't be too expensive, so it might be worth trying several varieties. -- Jay Reynolds Freeman (Schlumberger Palo Alto Research)(canonical disclaimer)

ouse. To be safe, try and use any surface before putting out money on a pad. Of course, if its cheap (scrap?), it can't hurt to try.
