Yeah.. It's a great mouse.. I love them.. Unfortunately you have to buy them brand new on E-bay because the company is practically history..

well the one I received had some wear on it. And it only lasted me four months. I was pretty pissed. Not that everyone of them is defective. I just got a lemon most likely. The left mouse button (my move forward) started to stick and/or not activate. not just the button but the actual switch inside. And in order to take this mouse apart. you have to remove the stickers on the bottum that it glides on. So basically to get it open you have to damage thoughs glide foots. And we all know thoughs stickers will never be the same after you tear them off.

Anyways. Really dramatic stuff.. I put it out of it's misery like a lame horse. It wasn't quite like losing a mother probably..more like losing a brother I would say. I miss it alot.

I can barely aim for the MOH:SH icon to load the program now let known hit targets with a shotty. lol. Well it's not that bad. But come on.. This MS Optical sux compaired to the Boomslang.

I just can't find it in me to buy another one when the busyness is being so shadey. And the last one lasted what, a whole four months and all.

It's also a track ball mouse.. so it requires regular cleaning and a good clean mouse pad. And because everyone is just so fricken happy with there gay as optical mice these days. It's even difficult to find a good mouse pad to compliment the Boomslang.

Sad but true.. There's just no such thing as a supported gaming mouse worth anything these days.
