You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.
Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

Re: Laptop mouse suggestions
Yup, same as mine goontron.
Well.... almost! Mine looks newer and doesn't say "wave" on it. *waves at receiver*
BTW, nice pile of stuff on the floor... somewhat resembles my office. A true nerd!
RD, The new unifying receivers are eensy weensy though.
So small, you just plug them into a lapdog and leave them.
Even surviving a lapdog bag. HEHE
Shovenose, my couch mouse has a range of at least 10-12ft. using the unifying receiver, so does my other newer mouse that I mentioned, m310 IIRC. Haven't tested the range of the LX8. Read the end of my review post, MS mice are horrid! In all fairness, the corded red led optical ones were great back in the day! Aaahh, the good old days!
*Sorry for no quotes, too big of a pain on my phone. Read, time suck! Editing, deleting, multi-quoting... UGH! :/Last edited by y_not; 10-31-2013, 12:14 AM.

Even the corded optical MS mice were trouble... I used to have a bunch of 5 button ones... the USB cables were crap and they kept dying... the sensors would slowly stop tracking... they had junky "wincap" branded caps in them, I never investigated that as a cause of the deaths, but it wasn't dirty sensors at least... Heck, I used to use those with EVERYTHING. Sadly, I gutted all my dead ones for microswitches...sigpic

Re: Laptop mouse suggestions
One mouse and that's a Logitech Performance MX. Good battery life, accurate as fuck and can work on any surface, very good for gaming and range is pretty damn decent too. Priced about $80-90, but it will last at least a good 4 years before it wears out and you've dropped/slammed it a dozen times and the battery finally bites the dust.
I love it and it's very comfortable.

They were calling laptops, "lapdogs". HAHA
Probably because they get so toasty, who knows!
Maybe they got it from the Angelina Jolie film "Hackers", but I don't remember it being in there, just: "Did your mom buy you a puter for Christmas?". LOL

Only 4 years? Mine is nearly 5 years old and still works a treat, but, then again, I don't play catch with it.

Originally posted by shadow View PostI thought that the 'hyperspin' can be switched on and off using the mechanical button under the scroll wheel. Change between indented scrolling and continuous scrolling.
RD, why don't you like the hyper scroll mode, ie. what are you referring to with "hotbar scrolling"?
I know many UI elements and their respective names, this one is not coming to mind.
Edit: Aaahh, you must be referring to a UI element in Minecraft, huh? Inventory?
I was thinking OS, not gaming. HAHA Please explain further.Last edited by y_not; 11-01-2013, 05:56 PM.

Re: Laptop mouse suggestions
Makes sense! You should go check newegg, see what's in your price range, then narrow down the specs from there on Logitech's site. It'll say what type of wheel it is and if it's dual purpose or not. I think they all are though, least with Logitech.
They have an OEM pg. too, it has more models and such that aren't otherwise listed.
