Windows 7 - Mini Fireworks??

[DiamondNRG]

Hmm, missed my sarcasm?

And yours is scary. I think it belongs to the dark side.

 

[johngalt]

Whereas I think *this* is the most perfect mouse for XP and beyond....

 

[Mark]

It's OK

 

[DiamondNRG]

I think a mouse is very much a matter of personal opinion. Microsoft likes the fact that I use their mouse and that makes me sleep better at night Especially because they bought it for me. (I then bought the Laser Desktop 8000 anyways, so now I have 2 go figure)

I call these things eye candy. Looks great!

Since when has this became a show your mouse thread....lol

as for me you are going to laugh as a have the original laser wheel mouse optical (all with a cord...lol)

Mouse: Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical
This optical mouse is a gamer's delight. It is extremely lightweight and ergonomic and with its highly sensitive optical sensor, you can bid farewell to tracking off (skipping). Note the name again - Wheel Mouse Optical and not Basic optical mouse. Now head shots are just a click away.

that was in the old days of 05...lol

 

[Mark]

I had one of those and it was a good mouse, the only hing I noticed big time when I upgraded was the precision with the newer lasers.

 

[DiamondNRG]

DA ... I had a corded laser mouse from Microsoft in '00. It actually had a LIFETIME warranty. Although in '01 they changed that to 5 years. That mouse was great. I gotta remember what it looked like...

Those look like the ones I still sell today. Maybe MS upgraded them abit now.

Actually it was 1999!!! My freshman year in college...

It was an "IntelliMouse Explorere with IntelliEye" It was awesome. It had 5 buttons way back then

Uh huh -

Well, of course it is - just as which OS to use, which components to use i building a PC, what color car you like, how you like your coffee, etc. etc, ad infinitum ad nauseum....

Thanks for getting us back on track.

Now, leave it to me to take us back off track

Here is my other 'Mouse', and both are connected simultaneously to my computer (the MX uses USB and the Trackman uses PS/2, so no conflict of devices):

That style of mouse drives me nuts, when I was at my last job they had a Microsoft one on the front counter and I always used to try and move the mouse before remembering about the ball and another thing that used to bug me was the ball used get stuck or jump, but on the plus side they are good if you have limited desk space, which by the way was not an issue.

Love those Fireworks!

 

[johngalt]

They are also *really* good for those with bad wrist problems as the entire arm from wrist back can remain stationary - I used that puppy with an arm brace on one time - my fingers could move (albeit painfully) an thus I could work.

 

[DiamondNRG]

WOOOHOOO FIREWORKS!!!! I just did it about 10 times in a row

Okay, so we're talking about computer mice now?

To get on topic again: middle-click opens a new window for me, alt-click does indeed open the window switcher in sticky mode and ctrl-click cycles through the windows.

 

[darkassain]

@john

LMAO.....

thats a nice mouse...
some of the college computers use that kind of mouse


@everyone

yep and its still strong after repeated shock damage falls spills and is still good for gaming....lol

this is the only reason i got *OK* marks on the COD beta...lol
(im not a really good gamer but this mouse is something else...)
i also have a logitech and that for a desktop/server....

this one is deteriorating and getting worse than the MS mouse even though i had 2 years with it...lol

Hello all.
