| Review | Rating | Last Updated | Nice, durable, optical mouse.
I got this mouse b/c i got a new laptop for college and this mouse was on sale for only 15$. that was over 3 years ago, and the mouse is still working great. i've found nothing to complain about as far as the buttons making noise (I mean, what can you expect? absolute silence?). i have had some issues with the mouse not being recognized when you first start up the computer, and then i would have to keep unplugging and plugging until it finally was recognized. but that was on my old laptop and it hasn't done that at all on my current laptop, so maybe it's the computer's problem. (a combination of both probably b/c now my old laptop is hooked up to a logitech optical mouse and that works perfectly every time). anyway, this mouse works well overall... however, if you have some extra money to spare, i suggest you get a WIRELESS Optical mouse (especially if you have a laptop). saves space, easier to pack, and just cooler overall. I'd suggest: Logitech 931006-0403 Cordless Optical Mouse for Notebooks USB or Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse, Steel Blue. search for them on Amazon. The Logitech MX700 is supposed to be the king of wireless optical mice, but it has a bulky base and it's very expensive... whereas the other two i mentioned have a tiny flash drive-sized USB transmitter. | 4 | Today | Good mouse. Bad driver.
I like this mouse overall. It has a shapely design and comfortable contour. It glides smoothly over mousepad and clicks smoothly, although not quietly. My complaints are that the scroll wheel makes rattling noise when you turn it, and the hardware driver is buggy. The mouse went dead after day or two of use on both USB and PS/2 ports (Win 2K, XP). I had to uninstall the MouseSuite to get the mouse back. Searching for a newer driver on IBM website yielded no luck either. IBM probably has one of the worst websites of any hardware manufactures. Searching by the part number or model number as they suggest returns no results. Oh well. The mouse still works, but I can't program the buttons. | 4 | Today | GREAT MOUSE FOR A LAPTOP.
THIS OPTICAL MOUSE WORKS GREAT, AND IF YOU HAVE A BLUE VIAO OR OTHER LAPTOP, IT MATCHS IT PERFECTLY. THE SOFTWARE IS EASY TO INSTALL, AND THERE'S NO NEED FOR A MOUSE PAD. I WANTED AN OPTICAL MOUSE FOR MY NEW LAPTOP. I DID NOT WANT TO NEED A MOUSE PAD, AND I ALSO WANTED A COOL LOOKING MOUSE TO MATCH THE COLOR OF MY NEW VIAO LAPTOP. THIS MOUSE FILLED THE BILL COMPLETELY. IT MAY SOUND SILLY BUT, WHY PAY 1,200.00+ FOR A NEW LAPTOP. AND THEN BUY A BLACK OR WHITE DULL LOOKING MOUSE? IBM IS A GREAT PRODUCT, AND I HAVE FOUND THIS MOUSE TO BE BETTER THAN MICRO----!! IF YOU REALLY WANT TO COMPLETE YOUR LAPTOP, BUY THE IBM NUMERIC KEYPAD AS WELL. IT'S BLUE TOO, AND IT WORKS GREAT. | 5 | Today |
