1.0 out of 5 stars A jumpy mouse, 29 Sep 2006
It is a good looking mouse that moves beautifully. However, the scroll wheel moves jerkily. The mouse does not scroll as fluidly as my previous mouse. After a few days another problem occured. The mouse pointer jumps about erratically on the screen. I could be pointing at something and the mouse arrow will jump to the opposite side of the screen without me even pointing it there. It does this quite frequently. It is doing it whilst I am writing this review. It must know that I am talking about it behind its back.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good cheap gaming mouse, 27 Nov 2006
By Antony Andrews (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I like this mouse: accurate and nice and simple - no extraneous buttons to press by mistake whilst gaming. The scroll wheel has detents which makes for good weapons selection.

It's also 100% ambidextrous, which suits left-handers such as myself.

I prefer it to another MS mouse I purchased (Comfort Optical 3000) which costs almost twice the price but which sucks for gaming.
