Rating: - My second...I'm back!
Back in '01 I think, I bought one of these mice and loved it. I was so impressed I bought one for my boss ( I was the only employee ). It is still working but most of the silver is gone and the buttons are getting weak and vague. So it was time to get another one...thought I go high tech and shop for something different. Bought a Logitech Trackman...gonna give that ball thingy to my son...the search continued. Well to make a long story short...
" I'm back". Going to get back under the wing of my Microsoft Intellimouse...can't wait to get rid of this ball thing.
Rating: - Returned it
This mouse is very light and the side buttons are very easy to touch by mistake. The buttons are much too sensitive and I had to disable the right one due to constantly touching it by mistake. I finally returned it and found a heavier mouse with side buttons higher up and also cordless.
Rating: - Excellent
My first gaming optical mouse. Excellent mouse, still working after a few years of hard work :)
Was replaced by a more advanced Logitech MX500, but still use it constantly. It rocks!
Rating: - the only Microsoft product I like
I've used this mouse for decades. My current Intellimouse is over 10 years old, and still works beautifully. It's comfortable in my hands (I wear a ladies' size small glove, for reference). It's very accurate and smooth. The five buttons are great - they make surfing so much faster, and because they're programmable, I can find a use for all five in almost every program. It blows people's minds when they watch me navigate because I can do things without them seeing it just by clicking a button on the mouse, rather than going to a menu or the keyboard.
I have several Macintoshes and once had a Windows laptop. The Intellimouse works well on all of them. It does require a downloaded driver, but it's a small price to pay for this kind of functionality.
Rating: - I Replaced My Abused Intellimouse.
I'm a hard core gamer, the left button on my mice gets thrashed. It took three years , but the left button started to double click on it's own, so I retired it to backup status (I can always program the middle button for single click).
I like the MS Intellimouse, it's rugged (really), quick, never gives me "jumping cursor syndrome", and, I like wired opticals. Love the 5 buttons.
