From my limited use of an optical mouse, I should think that it might scratch but, more importantly perhaps, it might not function very well on a surface that has no features from which it could easily discern its position. A conventional mouse does not have to rely on such features, of course.
I hope that is helpful to you.

I got my powerbook today!  Yeah!  It's so pretty.  I haven't taken a
new Mac/Apple out of a box since my Centris 610 in 1993 (subsequent
models were previously owned).  Apple really does pay attention to the
experience of owning a computer.[SNIP]

Question #2:  Does anyone use the space next to the trackpad on their
powerbook as the "mousepad" area for their optical mouse?  This seems
so convenient.  Will it scratch it over time?
