True Mouse Benchmarking
« on: February 21, 2007, 11:28:25 AM »
I am in the process of spending $50 @ ConfusedUSAll and doing so reminded me that I never posted a link to a review I saw a while back where they figured out how to do a TRUE benchmark on mouse performance.  Very good information that might surprise you.

More here.

I picked up a Habu last night, and with the new drivers, I think the performance is much better.  I do like how there is buttons that I would not normally use that t are for changing the resolution.

Link the mouse, I need to get one for my laptop because I can't keep spending batteries for this wireless one.

I am trying to go back to teh old boomslang finger placement.  The problem isn't with the mouse, it's me.  I am so used to using the 2 finger placement that I keep having to make myself switch all the time.
The Buttons are bigger and the side buttons are moveable.  Response time is good as well.
