I am still unclear about which size to purchase! I have a 17" laptop and I MUST have use of my mouse! Do I buy a mouse size or a large??? Help.

Honestly, with a 17" laptop you are not going to have room for a mouse at all on this table. If there is any room, it might be an inch or two at most.

You would have to buy two; the large one and then the mouse. It's two separate units. The mouse attaches to the side of the table. That would bring up two cons though, the table is only about 12" deep, most laptops would hang off the back edge about an inch. Also a 17" laptop would likely be between 5 and 7 lbs, that would make it a little tipsy especially if the legs are extended to higher positions. I wouldn't be sure it's a good solution in that environment but it's possible.

I consider this a full-sized mouse. However, I've had to use a Microsoft mouse here lately and it's much larger (too big in my opinion). The Logitech doesn't feel small in my hand, or didn't until I started using this giant Microsoft mouse.

It really depends on your laptop; I got the 17 inch because I'm buying a larger laptop and it's too large for my 15 inch laptop.

No.I don't think there will be enough room to fit the mouse even if u order a larger one.

I would consider this a full size mouse. My hands are not small at all. There should be some customer submitted photos of it that compare it tot he normal small wireless notebook mice.Here's the link to the customer shot I mentioned.http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/permalink/moOHIMN1N3VIA4/B005EJH6RW/ref=cm_ciu_images_pl_link

I use a mouse with mine. But my laptop sits on a desk, not my lap. If you want to use your laptop in bed, or while you're sitting in your recliner, this isn't going to work. You'll need something bigger.

I appreciate the posts regarding the use of 17" laptops on lapdesks. It's difficult to find lapdesks designed for larger laptops, so I appreciate reading reviews about how good/bad the various products work.

depends on how large your computer is. mine is about 15 inches and i think a mouse would be a little tight.

Hello Julie,This mouse is about 3.5 inches in length similar to your current mouse. I am actually using this mouse for my laptop right now and it is great. One thing that you want to keep in mind is that it takes two AA batteries to operate. This means it will be a little more heavy than other wireless mice. I have never had to change the batteries in this mouse and I had this mouse for about 6 months. It's a great mouse, but it could be a little bit on the heavier side if you plan to carry it with you.

I agreed with you that I will use mouse to do any photo works. I'm looking for a laptop that can run Photoshop CS3 efficiently. I am debating whether I need a good desktop instead of laptop. If this laptop can do the work with my IPS monitor, then I don't need to buy a separate desktop any more. I like the laptop because it is light and easy to carry. I wish this is 11 inches instead of 12.1 inches. Any comment?

Yes, my laptop is bigger and I can attach a mouse ... not tons of room for my bigger laptop but enough ... so yours should be fine.

I use a steelseries (the big mouse pad) and it works really good.Try to find a mouse pad that is kinda soft cause the mouse feet (bottom of the mouse) can wear down quickly depending if you're hardcore gamer I say a good year our 2.

Without knowing just how large your hands are, I wouldn't know what your hand would look like on the optical mouse. I would think that just about any size would work with this very great mouse. It is wonderful, in my opinion. I have, maybe medium-sized hands, and it is very comfortable, plus I doubt there are really larger ones out there to use. It also is an extremely durable mouse; I know because it has been accidentally dropped on our tile floor many times and continues to work just great! I always highly recommend it. Plus I see no problem with the right button as someone else commented on here. Without knowing just how large your hands are, I wouldn't know what your hand would look like on the optical mouse.

I ordered mine from Amazon, they had quite a few to select from. I chose a full sized one to fit my hand as I use a desk-top computer and needed something comfortable to use for lengthy time periods. Hope I was helpful to you. Good luck! Lisa Wood

It's not the largest mouse out there. If you have large hands, like I do, it'll get uncomfortable after a long time. But the thumb grip mostly eliminates this. Personally, I like the size because it allows me to carry it around without trouble but it's still big enough for comfortable use with breaks. In comparison to other mouse models (I only ever used the stock HP one that came with my desktop) it's shorter. Probably a little too short. Hope that helps.

I measured the width and it's 20.5 inches. Some people might have measured it diagonally. I use my 15.6" laptop on it and it works fine. I wouldn't use a larger laptop on it, because it would hang too far over the mouse pad area. I hope that helps.

This is fine for laptop use. It is not a full size unit. It is the size of the Logitech Anywhere mouse for a point of reference.
