Microsoft IntelliMouse trackball

When my old mouse was finally on its last legs - held together by blue tack - I decided it was time for a change and went off in search of something ergonomically satisfying, modern and long-lasting. I didn't want to spend more than ten pounds however, so this meant that I had to do a lot of shopping around before I could find the best possible deal. On visiting shops like Woolworth's and Game, I realised that their products were over-priced and not even that good. Eventually I found just what I was looking for in PC World - the Microsoft IntelliMouse TrackBall. This mouse usually sells for ... more

This is an excellent product and since most of use the mouse so much…..well you have to this is a great product if you are thinking of replacing your mouse. My old mouse had become a bit stiff shall we say and it would take me such a long time to get to the place I wanted it too, and when friends came round it could be a touch embarrassing as it would ages for the mouse to be positioned. So, I was on the look for a new mouse and when I saw this at my local computer shop staring at me I had to have it. It cost m £15 which I think was good value.

On the lighter side of the mouse, Microsoft realized that it couldn't just create mice, since there were other folks out there that were into trackballs.

I bought the Trackball mouse so that my kids could have more fun using the computer and in a way they have been. As you'd expect the build quality is very good, its packaged well and comes with a CD rom for easy installation. The mouse itself is quite big but remember you don't have to move it around the desk therefore theres no reason why you have to keep on lifting it to reposition the mouse cursor hence the reason I bought. It also has a scroll button very handy when browsing pages on the net, this allows you to move the page your viewing in 4 directions. The Trackball might be of use to ... more
