also, why do you prefer microsoft mice?
any special reason, or did you just get hooked?
i'm hooked on logitech mice, and i'd like to get a "quiet" keyboard someday.
maybe Dell's Quietkey?

Yes, they glow (even if the computer is turned off.) No, they aren't comfortable.

Gosh!!! Guess what.. Today only I knew Microsoft Mice are available.. I have been using Logitec for ages.. The only mice I'm comfortable with..

One more question for Microsoft Mice users.. Does Microsoft release the necessary patches for the Mice drivers???

RE: i am not a fan of microsoft but...
I have to say i've always been a fan of Logitech myself...

however I've never used a MS Mouse that I like the design of (i cant stand all the extra buttons)... but the only Logitech mice i've used fit my hand perfectly, are cordless (i cant stand mice with cords..), and only have the buttons i need (left, right & scroll).

Not to say MS Mice are bad thou...

RE: i am not a fan of microsoft but...
All IR mice are the best (without the scroll ball) Because the old ones used to get clogged up with dust after a while and they would rapidly loose sensitivity. Plus put them on a glossy surface like a magazine and its hopeless. I dont mind mice with cords but i prefer cordless. But you can loose cordless ones like i did the other day.
