BenQ M800, a Valuable Standard.

Advantages: Long Lifespan, LED Notifications, Quality Laser, Silent Clicks, Comfortable to Hold
Disadvantages: Wired, Complex LED Email

...The BenQ M800 Mouse is an outstanding combination of style and quality marketed at a reasonable price. This review covers the major aspects of the mouse including extra functions, laser quality, mobility and clicks, design and service length. The mouse came in a pretty box with an USB cable, a PS/2 adapter, installation CD and manual. I'm a very picky person and checked out mice in four different IT chains before buying this one. Because I'm a desktop PC owner, the fact that it is wired was a plus (it meant no recharging). Laptop owners might find this a restraint. LED Its major advantage is the LED light that can be selected out of three colours: red, green and blue. The colours are functionable, for the mouse can be programmed to flash a different light at a specified rate when you get a new...

Review of BenQ M800 - mouse

A travelling mouse

Advantages: responsive, but not expensive
Disadvantages: I feel uncomfortable with the size.

...Last month I brought a Labtec mini optical glow mouse for £7.99 from amazon.co.uk with free delivery. General information Labtec was founded in 1982 and is a leading products provider for computing, communication and entertainment. The Labtec mice have a large proportion of the market. Labtec mini optical glow mouse has very good design for use with laptops. It looks the same as the picture you can see on this website, but it?s a lot smaller than you can imagine from the picture. The size is about as big as 2/3 of standard mouse. However it has a two-button design with a single scroll wheel in-between. The whole translucent panel and the scroll wheel change slowly in 7 colours when the mouse is working. If you don?t like it you can turn it off. It is a small wired optical mouse with a USB connector. You just need to...

Benq

Advantages: Comes with a lot of useful software
Disadvantages: none

...The Benq Dwq1600 ia a robust DVD rewriter, which comes complete with software and plenty of built in technology disigned to ensure correct playing of unlevel DVDS and CDS. The software you get free is WinDVD Creator 2.8B, Win DVD4.0B, Record now! 7.1, Sonic DLA 4.9. I did find there to be a few problems with this drive, For a start it is only compatible with DVD+RW and DVD+R standards, there is no headphone outlet or volume control. ** The Overall Design ** The DW1600 has a standard specification, with a fairly fast speed on both single layer and dual-layer discs.

Benq Joybook Review

Advantages: Battery Life, Portability, Performance
Disadvantages: Could be zippier

...included are a VGA out, and S-video out to connect to your TV. As this PC is aimed towards office/student use, the inbuilt video card is an onboard Intel Variety, offering substantial performance in windows. It utilises shared memory so gaming is a little out of the question. The sound card is quite reasonable, offering neat stereo sound via front mounted speakers, as well as mic/headphone ports. The general look and feel of this Laptop is excellent, with stylish silver plastic, and chromed buttons. Blue LED's for status lights certainly add to the effect, and at 2.4Kg it is quite a light PC to carry around. Benq is even kind enough to include a simple Polypropene (Think Wetsuit material) Slim Case for a little extra protection on the road. The included software is excellent, Windows XP Professional, NTI-CD Maker, Cyberlink DVD Viewer...

Review of BenQ Joybook 5000U

Awesome BenQ 1920x1080 Full HD Monitor!

Advantages: 2ms, HDMI, Full HD 1080p
Disadvantages: The exterior of the monitor is a bit glossy.

...I bought the E2400HD 8 months ago and have loved it since the day I received it. I ordered it online and it came in three days later. It came in a standard brown BenQ box with the monitor, the stand, D-Sub, power cable, and an installation CD/manual. I bought it through a friend?s advice as he had bought the E2400HD when it first hit the shelves, and he has been telling me about how awesome it is ever since! It is hard not to agree with him, because the monitor just performs at a superb level and quality for the price range that it is competing in! The E2400HD would be what I?d like to call a multi-media/functional desktop/laptop peripheral display. It comes with HDMI and DVI support, and is loaded with 1080p (16:9 display or also known as 1920x1080), which gives the monitor a very beautiful bright and crisp display. Blu ray works...

The bright mouse

Advantages: Less maintenance, cheap, reliable, connectivity options
Disadvantages: Still a corded mouse

...If we are surfing on ciao, chances are in one of our hands we have a mouse. However, not all mice are created equal. Here is a great little bargain mouse that removes a lot of the \"ball\" mouse headaches.....The Optical Wheel Mouse from Microsoft. Design/Ergonomics. Nice and contoured to your hand, its symetrical shape and slim sides makes it comfortable to hold for long periods of time.The sloped front and back allows it to sit directly in the palm of your hand without any aches or pains. Buttons are easy to reach and soft to touch. The slightest click is picked up but its sensors as is a turn of the centrally located scroll wheel. Usage. A nice responsive mouse that knows exactly where it is thanks to its bright red LED shining down on its control surface. Its accurate and does not suffer from the \"flicking around...

Review of Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical - mouse

A mouse in the house

Advantages: Easy to use
Disadvantages: None

...At work we have a lot of computers, as to be expected these computers each have a mouse. The purchasing of all the computers and associated equipment is done by our IT department. The mouse of choice is Microsoft's Optical Wheel Mouse. Part of my work involves the testing employees work based knowledge, this is done with the use of a large number of computers and this involves in excess of three hundred candidates. Not all of these candidates are computer literate, so I not only guide them through the tests but I also find myself assisting the candidates in the use of the computers themselves. The tests are point, click and drag type tests so although the candidates do not need a great deal of knowledge about using a computer they still need to be able to use a mouse. This is where the optical wheeled mouse really comes into its...

^..^ Castrating the Mouse ^..^

Advantages: No ball to gather fluff, no tail to get in a tangle.
Disadvantages: Uses batteries.

...Hello, let me introduce myself. I am Mrs Farmer Giles and I am a dab hand with a carving knife. Before you run away in terror, please allow me to explain that I am a reformed character and time has moved on since Three Blind Mice. I am a thoroughly modern Farmer's wife now. Whilst Mr Giles is busy plucking birds for Christmas in the barn, I am buying him a nice pair of new wellies on the Internet all with the aid of my little white tail-less mouse. His name is Paddy. Paddy is a friendly little mouse and he is as good as gold. He is called Paddy because he is always to be found curled up on his soft mouse pad rug. In my reformation period Mr Giles was at his wits end. Whenever he let me loose on his PC, I found myself carving knife in hand and chopping the tail of any mouse that tried to run away. I got through a dozen mice...

Review of Apple Wireless Mouse mouse

Great durable mouse, nothing too fancy

Advantages: A good standard mouse with Microsoft quality
Disadvantages: Wire a bit big; mouse quite light, feels quite light so feels a bit flimsy

...Before I start reviewing I just want to state I have the new version 2 of the Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse that looks like this: http://www.microsoft.com/canada/fr/mac/otherproducts/images/m18BOM.jpg - and overall its a fantastic basic mouse that is sure to last for years. Like I said in the review title, there's nothing fancy here just a standard optical mouse with a scroll wheel. If you want a basic mouse that will surely last for years to come, get the Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse. The only gripe is the wire size. It's huge, and if you want to use it for a laptop this may be a minor inconvenience. The mouse itself is quite light and some may want a mouse that has a bit of weight to it. Overall, however, a good solid mouse. You may be able to find this mouse cheaper online such as Amazon.co.uk, than in retail stores. I...

Review of Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse Black - mouse

Logitech wireless Mouse M305 - a great replacement for a dud

Advantages: wireless with more freedom, responsive, comfortable.
Disadvantages: more expensive than a wired mouse.

...In November 2009 I bought a Logitech M305 wireless mouse, which cost £19.99 at Currys. General information Logitech was founded in 1981 in Switzerland and is a world leader in mice. The M305 wireless mouse is designed for use with laptops and is very comfortable in the hand. It looks the same as the picture you can see on ciao website i.e. grey colour with black feature. However if you visit Logitech?s website you can see it?s available in 7 colours. I would describe the size as standard for a laptop mouse. It has a two-button design with a single scroll wheel in-between. However the palm rest is a little taller and more arched than most mice on the market. The package is the size of a small book and easy to open. It contains a wireless mouse, a nano-receiver, an AA battery and a quick start guide. How to start using it...
