What Mouse

[monty]

Microsoft Intellimouse 1.1. I wont and cant use anything else.

Microsoft Product Information Center: Microsoft® IntelliMouse® Optical 1.1 : Overview

Ive had about 6-7 of them, I mainly kill them by pulling the wire out and my ex missus killed about 2 of them.

I tried the 3.0 series once, just didnt feel right.

You are really Goat the Geek aren't you

Logitech MX-518 here.....sweet, sweet piece of gear. I am gonna have to take a look at this fruit appliance, see if it is worth it.

Dont be sucked in by the flash mouse Dylan. Its just a £2.99 Tesco Mouse with flashing lights.

I will give credit where it is due.....if it is due. Still got to look at it first.

$69.00 its actually not priced too badly. Makes a change I suppose.

I hate commercials that look like threads.

Not using it for games.



Pretty much the same thing then. Although, Powerbook? Is it an old one?

It's one of the first 17" titanium powerbooks, from 2001-2 I think.

Being an ex gamer, I've tried all the high end mice, and have eventually settled for the Trust Predator.

7 buttons, and 2000 dpi, and looks as good as any other high end mouse.

You can actually buy it here for a tenner:

Has to be aluminium if it's a 17" Powerbook, they only made a 15" Ti Book

Actually, it is aluminium - which is much better, since planes are made of aluminium and they can fly, so.....

Haha I like your reasoning lol. At the time quite a few people preferred the Titanium of the ti books, but personally I loved the aluminium!

I ended up buying three of them, at various stages, before getting my current macbook unibody. I've still got a Powerbook 12" in the house, which my brother uses. They really are good pieces of kit and were just stunning compared to anything else out at the time.

Yeah, I like it, although spec isn't very good now compared to what's available. Was given it by a company I used to work for and still going strong though, so can't complain.

Had another around 2004 - broke after about a month, as did the MDs. Got it repaired, then my colleague dropped it out of the bag onto my kitchen floor and it bent into a funny shape! I gave that one back!!
