If you go to razer's website there's a bunch more info on it. That thing has its own internal memory.

Drakon will become famous soon enough

Donator
I am quite satisfied with my mx518, although having a blue led mouse is cool. Would match my case fans. But it's too expensive - $80!

quakerjtf is on a distinguished road

I've tried the microsoft basic optical, logitech MX510, and Razor diamondback. I've never used a better mouse than the microsoft. I bearly notice the difference between 400(may be 800), 800, and 1600 dpi and I play games fairly sensitive. The 1600 dpi was a tad smoother, but not worth $20 extra.

I wish but no I have not used one; using a MX 1000 right now. However, the last Razer mouse I owned was a Boomslang 2100 which I use now at work. I'm pretty much as bad as Zardon when it comes to mice. To be honest I've owned or used almost every single mouse out there. BTW Neon those are okay, but I like the feel of the older revs better. It's my OPO MS did a cost reduction on them, and now they feel cheap & too light.

I would, but I think that the cost of shipping would about equal the actual price of most of my cheap headphones.

I have a crapload that where bundled with hospital computers that weren't needed, as well as a bag I snagged after an Air Canada flight of all the passenger's headphones, but they're 2-input ones, so the don't plug into anything.

What I have now is quite a bit shorter, but I'm going to try to remember all that I've owned too.

Logitech MX1000
Logitech Marble Mouse
Razer Boomslang 2100

Mice that I have owned:

Logitech MX700
Logitech MX500
Logitech MX510
Logitech Dual Optical
Logitech Mouse Man /w ifeel
Logitech Mouse Man
Microsoft First Mouse
Microsoft Intellimouse all versions
Microsoft Explorer all Versions
Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer all versions including two wireless
Kensington Mouse (Can't remember model)
Logitech Trackman
Microsoft Trackball Explorer
Microsoft Trackball Optical

I'm having a hard time remembering mice I owned prior to 1998.

Meh, I'll wait for the Logitech mouse. Fits my hand better. Sucks for left-handers though.

Weight system? Uh, lightest please. God... a weight system...

Necrosis: Hehe, I've got a Kensington ball mouse too, that thing's suprisingly good, probably the best ball mouse I've used asides from the Razer ones.

HawgsHead: I've spent less money then you might think on my mouse collection, most of the non high-end ones I got very cheaply (or free), and I've been able to sell a lot of my former high-end mice for more than I paid to people around here.

My Kengsington was an optical. It worked well but the drivers weren't all that great.
