It depends a lot on what you work with, if you run a lot of command line then keyboard of course, but if you use things like CDE or other java based tools, like veritas it's difficult to work without a mouse.

But if you ask me to choose between rollerball, touchpad or mouse, I prefer a mouse anyday.
