I really like the MS optical mouse. The only problem I
have with it is if I roll the scroll bar too fast the
pointer changes into a double arrow and goes haywire.
All I have to do though is click into another open
window then back into the window where I was and the
problem corrects. This only happens to me once or twice
a week. The MS optical mouse, unlike Logitech's, has
thumb and ring finger buttons and I don't find either
of them awkward. The defaults, Internet Forward and Back
are great. Between these two extra buttons and never
having to clean a mouse ball my small problem is trivial.
One caution to others about optical mice. They don't
work well on solid colored mouse pads but do work fine
without a mouse pad on a wood desk with detailed grain
or with any mouse pad that isn't a solid color. Until
I got the MS Intelimouse Optical I thought Logitech
made the best mice but Logitech still don't have a
model equivalent to the Intelimouse Optical. I would
like 2 more buttons though for copy and paste and
there is room on the Intelimouse where they'd fit
nicely, in the corners between the side buttons and
the top buttons.
