Pros: Optical Sensor, Great Feel, Good size and weight Cons: nothing enormous.
This mouse was a dream come true from the start. It took me about literally 10 seconds to start using this mouse. I unplugged my old PS/2 mouse, and plugged in this mouse using the USB connection. After Windows finished building the drivers for it, it...

Pros: Good response...no cleaning needed. Cons: Side buttons can be a pain.
Ever since my first computer, I always had a problem with gunk build-up in my mouse. I considered getting a cleaning kit, but was too lazy. Instead, I bought this optical mouse. With no mouse ball, it requires zero cleaning. It tracks great and you...

Pros: Smooth movement. Cons: Price.
My husband purchased this on a whim. He said I'd benefit from using it because it doesn't JUMP like the mice with wheels. Was he right! This mouse is probably the best out there. While I don't like the RED bottom I do like the performance. ...

Pros: Small, cheap, perfect for left handed users. Cons: Some may want a bigger mouse (or could care more about looks).
I must say I'm impressed with this mouse.
Not only is it cheaper, smaller and more practical that its older brother the Intellimouse Explorer, but, it is also a far better choice for the hardcore gamer such as myself.

Pros: cool looking conversation piece, works great at first Cons: breaks after one or two drops, gets finicky about surfaces after a while
I bought this mouse because I was tired of cleaning out my gummed up mechanical mouse, the kind everyone has. I settled on the Microsoft Intellimouse Optical because, frankly, it looked cool. I like the way the laser light turns the entire bottom into...

Pros: many buttons, cool red glow, NO BALL!! works on most surfaces Cons: larger than typical mice (depends on your preference)
This mouse is great. Not only does it do away with the mouse pad altogether, it has extra buttons for added functionality. The software included allows for complete customization of all the buttons and can make life even easier! I've programmed the thumb...

Pros: AMAZING IN ALL MICE ASPECTS. Cons: it is quite a mouse only plus would be wireless!
I’ll be honest, BUY BUY BUY! I had my mouse now for a few months and will never go back to the "old balls" - no pun intended. I have tried my mouse everywhere including my dogs back. Just kidding'. I have tried it on my leg bare, on jeans, and...

Pros: No moving parts, sleek, comfortable, efficient Cons: a little bit expensive
I was tired of cleaning mice until they wore out, which never seemed very long. And they progressively get worse. The frustration factor goes way up.
While this mouse has acted the least bit flaky a couple of times, it is far better than...

Pros: Back and forward buttons for web. Great scroller, no carpel tunnel, no problems Cons: If this were wireless, I'd be in heaven. Tad hard to clean, white colored.
I sit at the computer all day long and work in web, and so I need to be able to rely on a good mouse - and I know, this mouse is boring and ugly looking, but the function and dependability has never let me down in the 3 years I've used it. I can't live ...

We always had a old mouse that had a mouse ball, which would constantly get stuck when you tried to move it. So we decided to look for something better but not too expensive.So when we arrived at computer city I went straight for the mice.The Microsoft...

Pros: No lint problems Cons: None that I know of!!
I bought this mouse about four months ago and I have had no problems with it. With the standard ball mouse I would have had to clean it at least twice by now. There are no moving parts on the bottom it tracks buy using light. Amazing those boys...

Pros: Smooth, responsive operation Cons: Sometimes cumbersome back and forward buttons
The Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer Optical is one nifty little gadget that is a valuable addition to the PC user's artillery. The mouse works via an optical sensor on the base of the mouse in place of a mouseball. This maps out the mouse's movement...

Pros: Hardly needs cleaning, smooth feel. Cons: Doesn't work for more than a month, EXPENSIVE
I purchased this product about 5 months ago, and since then I have had to send it back 2 times to get one that worked properly. With my experience they only last up to 2-3 months at a time. The only thing that I think this mouse is good for is BASIC...
