it may not look like much

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 (master number) miles per hour... you're gonna see some serious shit!

What about a mouse pad that had little air jets like those air hockey tables?

It's clearly a mouse force feedback system.

an air hockey mouse would have to be so fucking advanced, to actually do what you think it should do, you're probably better off betting money on FTL travel having a better chance of being invented.

Yep, I still use the 518. No need for any other, this does everything anyone will ever need from a mouse. Still got my 510 too which I use sometimes with the laptop..

I don't remember where I got this mouse but I have used it for a good 5+ years I'd estimate and it still works great. Its an MX400. I bought a Razer DeathAdder 3 years ago and used it for about 6 months but never liked it nearly as much as this one. I actually bought a second MX400 before they discontinued them so if my current one ever broke I'd have another. I sold it not too long ago when I was hurting for money. They have a new version of it now tho.

I'm not a big Razer fan, I'll buy Logitech mouses from here on out, but I do have a Razer Lycosa keyboard and I really doubt I'll find another keyboard I like better.

I use the Lycosa and am on my second one, a replacement. I like it for it's looks but in reality, it's a piece of crap. The first one had an issue with the touchpad backlight flickering then never coming on again. The replacement decides every now and then that no keys will work, or, pressing a key will put that key into eternal auto repeat until I remove the USB and reconnect it.

It's an awesome series.
My 510 had some trouble with it losing signal, opened it up removed a spring or something and it does it far less. Use it at work
518 at the desktop at home.
Bought the G400 (succesor to 518) for my laptop since it costs as much as a 518 in the nooks of the net. The surface feels slightly strange but it'll wear in i guess.

MX revolution..this is my mouse and now i can't even imagine using anything else

I've so grown accustomed to that side scroll wheel, (i use it as a volume control..pushes in to mute) that I honestly don't know how I'm gonna act when I finally have to upgrade and it's not on the market anymore. I love the way your thumb can rest right on the mouse... this thing feels just right holding it, and even though none of you will take it seriously since it's a wireless, I'm here to tell you you're missing out.

Honestly, this is the only mouse I've seen that utilizes the side wheel, newer models got away from using it, and I'm seriously gonna have issues getting over the fact that at some point I will no longer have one of these as an option. I'm considering buying 2 more for backup before they trickle out of circulation....yeah that's crazy talk!

really? I didn't even know it had a bluetooth flavor. Is the bluetooth considered to have a better connection? I know it probably has excellent reach, but how's it for gaming? also, what do you use the side wheel for?

It's not a very good mouse for gaming, IMO. My PC is using the Mx518 as posted above.

I find the Revolution is good for desktop/office use. You can only get it in a Bluetooth variety as a Mx5500 keyboard/mouse combo set. The side wheel is set to toggle Mission Control and Spaces on OS X. I don't notice Bluetooth being any different as I'm sitting right in front of the computer anyway, it's just nice not having any USB dongles sticking out of my Mac.

I feel like I've been lucky with mine, 3 + years and no problems. I can't read my S key anymore and there is wear on other keys I use a lot while gaming and typing, but I couldn't careless about that. I expected it when I bought it after reading a lot of Newegg reviews. It seems to me that while Razer has good products they have quality issues in terms of longevity. If you're constantly upgrading your computer stuff I say go for it but if you want something that's going to last a long time stay away from Razer.

I have been using a Razer DeathAdder since 2007. It's great for FPSs, and adequate for MMOs, etc.
