Microsoft IS good for something!

[redViper]

I just won an optical mouse from them :D:D:D .. I can't remember which one I picked, but its pretty good.. I think.. it might even be wireless, Im not sure.

I just signed the release (so they can add me to the website etc; ) and I have to mail it, and get it probably before christmas.. :?)

What contest was this?

[kirupa]

Congrats! What contest/sweepstake thing did you enter? MS mice are really good. A free MS mouse is even better - wireless or not :P

[Digitalosophy]

Very cool :thumb:

I could use some free stuff from microsoft ;)

[redViper]

i tried to find the link but I couldnt.. it was on the microsoft.ca website..

I dont know why I mailed to them.. I could have dropped it off in person.. their canadian office is like 10 minutes from my house, and i drive by it everyday :D

my friend works there in the canadian office! she does tech support if you do stop by there say hi to Krista for me:P

[andr.in]

That doesn't mean the mouse actually works :to: :beer:

[Butters]

Cool. I have to say, Microsoft can make descent Mice/Keyboards. Except those rollerball mice, they suck ***.

I've had the Microsoft Optical mouse that I'm mousing with right now for about 4 years, and it's worked great so far.

hey, your site is pretty cool...one thing though..are you using css for your bg image (the one that fades and has scan lines)? If so, you should set the repeat to x only, becuase on my monitor, i run a high screen res, and i saww the bg start to tile... (firefox)

NO WAY ! Microsoft Mouse ? hmm....never heard about them, lol !, get logitech MX 1000, the world's first laser mouse...trust me 79 $ is worth it !, its got a recheagable battery and a docking station :p !!!!! Microsoft sucks @ everything :)

[Butters]

Yea I want one of those lazer mice, they look cool. I need a new mouse actually, I just have one of those crappy Dell ones you get with ya computer.

[kirupa]

I use the Intellimouse Explorer (silver colored one) and it's great. I've been using it for several years, and the little sliding padding at the base of the mouse still hasn't worn off :)

[Maxtr0sity]

I'm using the standard wheel optical mouse by MS, worked for over 3 years now without a problem. I don't understand the big hype about wireless mouses, I never had an urge to rip the wire off.

kinda off subject

why does everyone hate microsoft, they add competition and stuff... and without them many of the people wouldnt be here right now, kirupaforum.com might not be here either...
