The Microsoft mouse is a bog standard 2-button mouse that’s ships with most Dell & other good manufactured PC systems. When these mice first came out they were around the £40 mark now they are around £12 FITS LIKE A GLOVE The Microsoft basic mouse is ergonomically designed to fit nicely in your hand and reduce the pressure and discomfort for long usage. I find that as the plastic is non-shiny and of a dull matt finish makes it more comfortable to use and feels less sweaty in my hand. BUTTON BASHING I have to say that I can get a little heavy handed especially when playing quake and that mouse button gets more fingering every ...  Read the complete review

(If your wondering about the title, inside ball driven mice is the ball, obviously, this ball is made of steel then covered with rubber, so there, I’ve explained it now….and yes, I know I’m a total geek!) The Microsoft Basic mouse is often confused with the larger Intellimouse we see quite often. The intellimouse was shipped with virtually every PC sold to business’s and the likes back in 1998-2000 and you saw them everywhere, they were very reliable mice and you can still buy them now. So why was the Microsoft Basic Mouse needed? Easy answer to this one, whether it’s right or not I don’t know, but it seems to have taken over ...  Read the complete review

With the present-day selection of mice, that all possible refinements offer. How everything still participates optical scanning, Intellieye, radio-mice and something I it wisely already almost to mark as miracles, that there is still the keen aged Microsoft Mouse. Okay, completely the good old Mouse doesn't participate she/it either, has gotten me the Wheel-Variante I. However everything of the row after. The purchase-decision: I must confess, at the moment as I me this mouse has bought, there was the optical scanning not yet. I will therefore face me a radio-mouse, a Trackball, a normal mouse with the decision or, to buy a Wheelmouse just. Since ...  Read the complete review

Yuck - his mouse had furballs! Teenage son wanted to go on the Internet this morning and, since mine is the only computer with a modem in this household (for obvious reasons!) that meant he was hogging it for over an hour. I really wanted to go over some of my Dooyoo opinions and possibly (if I could find some inspiration) make a start on another one, so I sloped off into his room with my notebook and floppy disk. After all, if he was using my computer then it was only fair that I should use his.... I booted it, inserted my floppy and laid my hand on his Microsoft mouse. What on earth was this? The mouse pointer was all over the screen, ...  Read the complete review

There was a time when all a mouse consisted of was box, with two buttons and a cord connecting it to the back of the system unit. This was of course in a time when mice were not being designed with the needs of internet users and gamers in mind and this was all that a person actually needed from a mouse. As far as I am concerned it still is all you need. The Microsoft Basic Mouse, is as it says 'basic'. There are none of the bells and whistles which are found on some of their and others' offerings, just your plain two button rollerball type mouse. Now if for some reason you find you can't live without your central roller, third button, optical ...  Read the complete review
