Summary: Comfy and accurate
Review: This is my second go with the Microsoft Optical Blue line of mice. The first time out, I tried the wireless version, which ended up being extremely erratic. I liked the shape and look of the mouse, so I decided to try the tethered model. I'm glad I did. This mouse feels comfortable in my hand, and the accuracy is second to none. I'm a graphics designer, so my mice have to be as precise as possible. This mouse really does the job well.If I can find a few flaws, the first would have to be the clackyness of the mouse buttons. They feel nice, but they emit a louder "clack" noise than I'm used to when depressing the buttons. Also, I wish Microsoft would ditch the extra LED they put in the tail of the mouse. What purpose does it serve to have it glow red 24/7? Considering the second LED is superfluous, the least they could have done is make it the same color as the mouse shell, and use a cool blue one like Sony does on the front of PlayStation2. Aside from those minor flaws, this is a solid performer. I recommend it.

Summary: Optical Blue by Microsoft
Review: This is the best computer mouse I have ever purchased. It has a nice feel and the scroll wheel is extremely easy to roll, with the perfect amount of resistance. I replaced my older Microsoft optical mouse, it still work well but wanted a change. It was well worth it, I am buying another one just like it for my other computer.
If you are in the market for a new mouse, buy this you will not be disappointed and the software works great to!

Summary: Best. Mouse. Ever.
Review: This is the best mouse I have ever used. I also own the wireless version of this mouse and it is equally as good. (This one is better for transport though.) The design fits perfectly in my hand, the software is useful and easy to install, and it is amazingly smooth for computer drawing/modeling. I have used logitech mice and other more expensive microsoft mice (elite and pro) and I still like this one the best. Its simplicity, good looks and excellent design make it the only mouse i'll ever use again.

Summary: Worst Mouse I've Ever Used
Review: This mouse never worked right. It was sluggish compared to even older microsoft intellipoints. It sticks all of the time in Counter Strike, the mod for half life. And if it sticks in Counter Strike, you can only imagine what kind of problems it has with Warcraft III, UT23K and other high end games. On my particular model, the left click button stopped working. The mouse wheel is easily jammed. Not worth the trouble. Go for a logitech

Summary: Easy to use and incredibly comfortable.
Review: This mouse requires no installation unless you want to program the 3 buttons, and if you want to install it, it only takes 5 minutes. The mouse is very ergonomical, and works on almost any surface because on the laser light instead of the tracking ball. Scrolling is easy to do, and the mouse has never broken in the year that I've owned it.

Summary: Suffers From Opitcal Jitter
Review: This was my first optical mouse. Unfortunately, I soon learned about optical "jitter". I was unable to get smooth curser movements for small hand movements involving editing of digital photos, etc. Small movements cause noticeable curser jitter on the screen. Do an internet search using "optical mouse jitter" and you will see this is a common problem for optical mice. I've since replaced it a Logitech MX310, which has no such problem. The Logitech moves across the screen smoothly - and seems to glide across the mouse pad easier. Of course the MX310 is more expensive - but worth it. If you don't do a lot of precise/fine work - then I suppose the "optical mouse blue" is OK.

Summary: For those people with a high-arched mouse.
Review: Well yes, I've found alot of the Microsoft mice to have a higher arch to them then most, now for some people this is uncomfortable. I would suggest for those people to either get a Wrist pad, to help your wrist and to have it higher off the table then usual so the high-arched mouse doesn't cause you pain, now you get the Wrist-Pad from Everglide.com or you could get a mouse pad, with a wrist-pad built into it already. Kingston and few other companys make em, should beable to find em just about anywhere, BestBuy, CompUSA, OfficeDepot and Amazon.com

Summary: Works Fine
Review: What more can I say than it works just fine. Truly plug and play under XP home. I will have to get used to the scroll wheel, it moves very easily compared to others that I have owned.
