Newest Review: ... detect and install the mouse. If you don't have a USB port going spare, then Microsoft have kindly supplied a PS/2 adapter. ... more

 ... An installation CD was also supplied, but I haven't used it, seeing as Windows did all the work for me. ~~~The styling~~~ Well there's not much you can say about a Mouse's looks is there. My mouse is a light grey colour with darker grey sides. However the new look, is grey with silver detailing. The first thing you will really notice about the mouse is the red light, that comes on as soon as you switch the computer on, it gets quite comforting, as you know it's connected properly. This is not a cordless mouse, b...more

Premium Review Microsoft Intellimouse Optical: Don't you just hate cleaning your balls? (665 words)
by - written on 09/02/05 (Very useful, 174 readings)
Rating:

All that fluff and gunk that gets stuck to the rollers and stops your mouse from working properly, that needs to be cleaned off regularly. Well what did you think I was talking about? Well after getting annoyed with the bog standard mouse supplied with Ernie, trusty computer for about the hundredth time, I thought there has got to be something better. And indeed there was, in the shape of an optical mouse, which instead of using a ball to track movement uses a laser. So we had a look around the shops, and Dixons happened to be selling the Microsoft Optical Intellimouse at half price. Now, I bought this mouse going on for two years ago for £24.99, ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review No more mouse fury (467 words)
by - written on 03/11/01 (Very useful, 30 readings)
Rating:

Every knows what its like when you've been using your mouse for a while and dirt and dust builds-up on the mouse ball and those tiny little wheels that the mouse ball moves to make to guide the cursor on the screen. Takes ages to get it off and even then it ends up hiding inside the mouse itself. You have to push down really hard on the mouse and move it speedily if you want it to move even one pixel on the screen. There is a solution to all of this. Optical GUI input technology. Put simply, instead of having a ball in the bottom of the mouse, you have a powerful LED and a high-speed optical sensor to track mouse movement, and they don't come much better ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Microsoft Intellimouse Optical: Is Mouse Fluff a thing of the Past? (725 words)
by - written on 28/09/01 (Very useful, 115 readings)

Well if you purchase yourself one of Microsoft's new optical mice, then the answer is yes. Gone are the days when you spent 10 minutes with a small screw driver trying to get rid of the fluff and gunk that has magically appeared from your imaculatly clean mouse mat! You could say that this is the most important development in mouse technology, since the mouse was first incepted, but then that would be over the top, a bit! ** Features ** There are several feature of this new mouse, the most important being the "IntelliEye" optical sensor which makes your mouse work. This nifty piece of kit checks for movement 1,500 times a second, wow, and ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review It looks pretty and it works (431 words)
by - written on 27/06/01 (Very useful, 14 readings)
Rating:

It looks pretty and it works (sounds like the ideal partner.) It really is an excellent product. The red light gives a satisfying sci-fi dimension to everyday tasks. More mundanely, it's much smoother to use than a ball mouse. It responds almost instantly. It makes you realise how the mechanical action of a standard mouse has been impeding you. It's comfortable in the hand. It fits my hand as if it had grown there. It's very light to move. You can use it on any surface except a mirror, although in practice this is unlikely. (After a brief experimental period of using it on my skirt, the walls, the carpet, my left palm, or whatever - I went back to ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Microsoft Intellimouse Optical: One man and his mouse (720 words)
by - written on 22/02/01 (Very useful, 89 readings)
Rating:

This mouse was designed for my hand? Feels like my hand was designed for this mouse, it's that good. I recently decided to upgrade my current mouse (a Logitech wheel mouse) to the Microsoft IntelliMouse Optical which I bought from Dabs.com. Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Upon plugging in the USB connection the computer instantly found the mouse and I was treated to a warm red glow from the device itself. So the basic functions worked straight away - a two button wheel mouse, but I wanted more, much more...... Examining the packaging it came in I found a driver disc and a rather sparse manual covering the basics of ...  Read the complete review
