A few seconds of ambience, then a few seconds where I hold my mouse to the microphone (audio-technica AT3035).
Yes, my mouse, a logitech mx510 has built in coil buzz/whining.
I was stretching out after a few hours in front of the computer, and found myself in a position where I heard this noise. Naturally, I stopped mid-stretch to focus in so I could figure out where it came from.
At first I thought it was my monitor, since it makes a noise too (but not of that character).
Guess my surprise when I zoned in to the mouse as the source
Would you please take a listen to my mouse? (mp3)

I didn't notice it until a few weeks ago, but my trusty MS Wireless Intellimouse Explorer 2.0 also makes a high pitch sound while moving the mouse around, though it seems intermittent (session-by-session).
I also remember the thread specific to Logitech mice and someone who complained to their tech support. Did anything ever become of that and do their new products still have the issue?
(I like their wireless "Wave" kbd/mouse)
