The Logitech V450 Nano Blows Away Apple’s Mighty Mouse…

Make no mistake, I love design, I love Apple, I love the majority of Apple’s products, and to a degree I love the Mighty Mouse – but I also hate it. I hate it for the simple reason that Apple managed to coalesce so much wonderful design an…

My favorite mouse would be my Microsoft trackball. It’s the kind where you mouse with your thumb. Sadly, it’s not made anymore. I also have a Logitech trackman wheel, which is similar but a bit smaller.

It bothers me to use a mouse and have to move my hand all over the place.

Well… I got a new Razer Lachesis today… I configured it via a PC and Controller Mate ( a cool software which I used to configure the secondary function keys on my SUN Type 7 Keyboard).

I love the feeling of the mouse, it seems to be a nice and VERY precise mouse. :)
I hope they will make a decent mac driver some day.

Cheers, Martin

Now I have to add some of my feelings of the Razer Boomslang to the comments.

I must say the build quality is a bit shoddy. The metal ‘chassis’ is misaligned a bit after intense gaming, and the Razer logo is already fading. Not too good. Also, the color of its body is annoying me more and more.

It’ll also be a bitch to switch to a new Razer mouse, since their mouse body is a lot higher. Ugh.

Awesome. We are all geeks. Debating about the inherent qualities of mice.
What i personally find lacking on the Logitech MX Revo is the acceleration Curve which is so different from the perfect feel of the Apple MightyMouse. On the other side I love having all those buttons and the wheel, even though I would wish it would have more resistance.

In order to gain some insight into razer mice, I confiscated the Lachesis from my brother in order to testdrive it (her?)… Awesome when you get adopted to it, but the non-existent Mac Drivers would drive me nuts… Otherwise I’d seriously consider getting one of them … :)

I hope they will finally come out with serious drivers for the mac.

Cool article though… :) We are pretty much all alike… Looking for the perfect mouse. :)
Cheers,
Martin
