I can't find a good mousepad

All the mouse pads I have used are too small, and don't stay in one place. I want a mousepad that is big, and will stay in once place. I have a really nice desk, so I don't want to duct tape something to it either.

Any suggestions? How are those ratpads?

Thanks!

I use one of those fellows pads with the Gel filled wrist pad..its comfortable, not huge but large enough for most work and good on the wrist.. and durable.. and will not move on you..

sorry, I have been a long time trackball user.. NO PAD REQUIRED! :D anyway, the gel pads are nice.. and those gel wristpads are must!

btw, you can always change the mouse resolution.. so it'll use less space. it's all personal preference of course.

Like mastertech01 I also use one of fellowes' mousepads with the gel-filled wrist pad. They are the best.

Thanks for the feedback. I don't really care for the wrist pads, they seem to get in the way when I am playing Quake. Has anyone used one of those ratpads?

Those Everglide/RatPadz mousepads are the best I've use. They have little things on the bottom to hold it in place and are very big. I can't stand using a different mousepad now.. Everything else just feels so sslow :)

I use a hunter green (vinyl), dinner place mat, that I bought at Walmart several months ago for about a buck. It's plenty large enough, easy to keep clean and didn't cost $20. Like some other cutting board... oops, I mean "Gaming" pads.
