      this is just my two cents.

      I recently switched to a gaming mouse which has at least 7extra programmable buttons for "mouse button" shortcuts.

      I use it because Im tired of some of the keyboard shortcuts.

      the pros:

      1. I set a middle mouse click to another button which is easier to click.
      2. I set up, left, right arrow keys to the middle mouse buttons. well I think it's easier then clicking the keyboard left, up, right arrow keys.
        ...

      the cons:

      1. it takes getting used to. I was so used to keyboard shortcuts.
      2. it's expensive and picking the one i like needs time consuming research and "a leap of faith"
        3...
        ...

      I just think my gaming mouse will improve my workflow.
