Microsoft Intelli Explorer (B75-00001) Mouse

Pros: Great look, never need to clean, great new buttons for the avid web surfer!
Cons: A bit large for some, optical technology only works on some surfaces.

Being an aficionado for technology and all the cool little gadgets it produces, I bought the Intellimouse Explorer the day it was released. Here's what I found:

Pros:

- The mouse itself looks great, although that is a purely...

Pros: Ergonomics and IntelliEye
Cons: it's a Microsoft product

I have to give Microsoft credit for coming out with a wonderful product that even makes a Mac person happy. This IntelliMouse is superior to any other mouse that I have used. It has 5 programmable buttons and a wheel for scrolling.

The best...

Pros: No mouse ball; works on almost any surface; added functionality
Cons: Small software glitch, easily corrected

Having suffered for long enough with the cheap mouse that came with my PC when I bought it, I thought that I'd go shopping for a mouse. This was actually quite some time ago. That was around when I first heard whispers in the breeze about some new...

Pros: Scrolling Wheel
Cons: Rolling Action

The most important part of the trackball is how it feels to you. For me the Microsoft trackball felt terrible. It wasn't at all responsive and the rolling action wasn't smooth at all. I had decided to move the trackball from the mouse because of the...

Pros: Great feel, Mac compatible, reliable
Cons: No Mac game input sprocket yet

I looked at Microsoft's new Intellimouse line at store yesterday and walked out with the less expensive Intellimouse with Intellieye. This mouse differs from the Intellimouse Explorer in that it lacks the two thumb buttons, and has a more traditional...

Pros: Never need to clean, easy internet use, precise beyond belief
Cons: didn't come out soon enough!

You all heard it correctly, don't look into the light, it'll make you go blind. But, keep it bouncing off the desktop, and you have the most ingenious and wonderful mouse ever created. I am talking about the Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer. What a...

Pros: Auto scroll (and very little else)
Cons: Too awkward and sensitive

The Microsoft IntelliMouse Trackball is ill-configured and too sensitive to the touch. One slight movement of the finger, and the pointer/cursor is on the run. I used the IntelliMouse Trackball for three days and returned to the store for a refund....

Pros: accurate, ergonomic, optical technology = no more cleaning
Cons: price, price, price, price...

The Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer is as fine a pointing-device as you can get, short of a dedicated pen tablet. It works on the optical principle, meaning that you never have to clean it, and that it works as well on the jeans you are...

Pros: 5 customizeable buttons, smooth action, lifetime warranty
Cons: Possibly a bit bulky, wheel too loose, $$$?

Cheesy title, but the Explorer mouse with Intellieye is certainly a step up in the mousing department. Having used the regular old Microsoft mouse with the scroll wheel, I was used to the chore of moving the mouse only on the specified mouse pad and the...

Pros: smooth
Cons: expensive, big

This mouse feels strangely light and cheap, but feel can be deceiving. At least the buttons have a nice firm click feeling. The mouse is very accurate and it great when you are trying to work on detailed things.

It is a little bit big, but I...

Pros: Feel, side buttons, wheel, style
Cons: disappearing cursor

Purchased Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer for personal use at my place of business. Use mouse a great deal during the day and wanted a sturdy and reliable mouse. Had previously used trackballs and liked the way they functioned but moving parts seemed to...

Pros: No Ball; USB but with PS/2 Compatibility (for older Computers Or Linux and Windows NT and BeOS compatibility); Mac Compatibility; Five Buttons now (all Programmable); Intellimouse 3.0 Software (Multi-lingual)
Cons: Lack of Rubber; Only Right-handed (currently); Beetly

Yeah, I heard of this product like about 6 or 7 months ago and I "really couldn't wait to get my hands on it" but really it was an inevitable purchase so really what's the big deal whether I liked it or not? I mean Judge Jackson was right in...

Pros: smooth, sleek, lights up and looks cool
Cons: expensive

I bought this product because my sister, an intern at Microsoft, was able to get the product for a discount rate (very, very good rate). It also looked very attractively packaged, etc- the internet buttons actually DO come in handy.
This product...

Pros: Smooth, accurate, fast reponse, USB
Cons: High cost, weak cord, slow replacement time

I have owned a Microsoft Intellimouse for about 4 months now. Most of my experience has been fantastic. Installation was a breeze on my Windows 98 machine. I use the USB connector and it really was 'plug n play'. The side buttons are really useful as...

Pros: its the BEST
Cons: after using this mouse you'll never be able to use a normal mouse at work or school without getting sick to your stomach

Well one day I finally got p*##$& off with my mouse. It kept jumping on the screen and I kept yanking on the cable that was getting caught behind my desk. Solution: Microsft Intellimouse Explorer and Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro.
