Optical Technology Navigate with better speed, accuracy and reliability—the optical sensor tracks movement on nearly any surface without the hassle of clogged mouse parts.
Comfortable in Either Hand Use your mouse with your left or right hand—ambidextrous design makes it comfortable either way.
Scroll Wheel Save time and effort with the scroll wheel—navigate documents and Web pages without using the on-screen scroll bar.
Pros: Microsoft delivers with this great product. It feels great in your hand and works perfect. The buttons are quite and the scroll wheel is top of the line.
Cons: None
Overall Review: Great product from a great company. The red light on the back is pretty cool too. :)
Pros: Works perfectly. High quality feel. Web wheel is perfect.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: Microsoft has gotten a few of things right... Windows 98, Age of Empires II, and their keyboards and mice.
I'm not a big super video game person or anything, so maybe this mouse isn't for you; if you just want a normal mouse, this one is great.
Pros: Compatable with older style (non-USB) mouse connectors. This is important to me since I have multiple KVM switch boxes with the older style connectors. No mouse ball to clean.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: This is my 3rd one for KVMs, none have ever given me any problems. Works fine on Solaris (Sparc and X86), Windows, RHEL, and Ubuntu.

Well Rounded Mouse4/19/2008 12:45:09 AM
Pros: Only good and decent mouse out there. no annoying fancy rails on the sides to hurt your hand. Truly simple and comfortable design. No annoying side buttons to lose your grip on the sides with. The mouse wheel gets easier to scroll with after the first few weeks, becoming highly intuitive.
Cons: If you somehow found the time to get used to super high dpi mouses then I guess you wouldn't like this mouses average but effective dpi level. You'll still get headshots just as easy.
Overall Review: I've gone through about 3 of these over the course of 3 years, but thats not to say they cant last for several years I just keep getting them because their cheap and can get dirty after a year (although you can easily open it up and clean it if one was so inclined, (toothpick does the trick for the tiny line looking crevices going along the sides)
Great Optical Mouse For The Price1/3/2008 3:04:50 PM
Pros: This is a great optical mouse from Microsoft. It comes with a standard USB connection, but also includes the legacy PS/2 adapter incase you need that setup. Mouse has a good feel.
Cons: No cons with such a simple product.
Overall Review: I bought this mouse to replace the Dell PS/2 trackball mouse that came with our PC a few years back.
Pros: it is good for the price and works well on my laptop
Cons: price the shipping was high for one mouse
