    Yeah, I'm against purchasing items from Microsoft... and i'm trying to remember the exact reason why?

    Ohh yeah I remember why... it was that 5th OS system I bought that cost me 250.00. Ripppp off... or was it the bad oman outlook,excel, ppp, word... you name it what you like but its junk.. EA MP games fits in the same category.

    eh, I just bought a Razer Pro|Click v1.6., essentialy a Plasma Diamondback with a different color scheme and Mac friendly software. I wuv it, but it took about a week for it not too feel absolutely horrible in my hand. It does force me to put it in my hand correctly, and I admit that it has REALLY helped my gameplay. I was previously using a wireless Compaq knockoff of a MX900. Felt real nice in the hand, but oh how it lagged when playing UT2k4.

    Anyway, does the higher DPI count really help past 1600 CPI or so? Isn't it just snake oil now? Some mythical and god like number that really doesn't do anything? Correct me if I'm wrong. :)

    erm, thats not a terribly expensive mouse. my 518 was 60 (50 on sale)

    i dont know, i love the shape of microsoft mice and the performance of a razer.

    it looks liek its 100% razer built. kinda like someone shoved a razer mouse in a M$ shell. i kinda like it. im gonna need to see it in person first though. hey it might replace my 518 someday. of course once i repalce the LEDs with green ones.

    i love the way you're all whining about the price when its cheaper than a razer copperhead...
    £30 for an uber gaming mouse is relatively cheap tbh

    and theres nothing wrong with MS mice, i loved my intellimouse v3 but it died and at the time the intellimice were sucky design so i went with an mx518
    better mouse, not as comfortable imo
