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!
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.
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.
@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
hence why i said this....
