Review on Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse P58 00061 by Kelly Pierce

I upgraded to this mouse from a standard Dell mouse. I use Logitech at work. I almost forgot how much I loved the simple two-button scroll wheel mouse from Microsoft.PROs: comfortable to hold, reliable drivers (easily recognized by Windows and no reboot required), no batteries to swap out, like cordless, comfortable grip and well-detailed controls for business, personal, and light gaming. Simple, direct and reliable at a good price. I don't like the side and extra buttons on other models that I accidentally (frequently) press. Basic Logitech isn't bad, but I rate Microsoft higher because I think I have better control/detail with the wheel and click zones. Like my favorite shovel (on the farm), this mouse gets the job done, does it well, and isn't overly pretty or complicated. Cons: Not many cons considering the value for money. The cable could be a little longer. As other reviewers have noted, left/right clicks are louder than expected. As for the volume of the clicks, it's about the same as typing fast on a mechanical keyboard. (If you think it'll bother you, then it probably will. If you think it probably won't interest you, then it probably won't be.)#
