And, I got it for cheap. =)


Cooler Master CM Storm Spawn 3500DPI Optical Sensor Gaming Mouse

Bought on Ebay for nearly $20 off list price..shipped in under 3 days:

It says used...but I really can't tell...it's primo. Worked out of the box.

I'm a claw/fingertip gripper with smallish hands and a very bent-up pinky (broken yrs ago), and this is friggin' awesome.

Even surfing is faster now. And, no crap logitech drivers. :twisted:

Yea, a nice mouse is a self indulgence that can be appreciated for years.

I've been running an MX518 for a few years now, I do have an eye on the G900 from Logitech (I like Logi), but the price is stupid.

Web browsing is a lot more enjoyable with back and forward buttons, everyone should have a 5 button mouse IMO.

Yeah man, I'm totally loving this mouse..it's like it was made for my hand. I have short stubby fingers, and this works.

Plus, with the awesome drivers/software..I've got it to my perfect speed/control point. It's like I added RAM or something.. :D

I researched for weeks...razer asian edition salmosa , Logi G1, even the new Zowie Mico. This won out.

No accel needed, no drift, no prediction, no jitter.... no worries.

I'd wife this mouse.

Much prefer the logi software to Coolermaster software.

Mate has a CM mouse.

Setpoint vs the CM Storm software? Seriously?

Spawn_Icon.exe = 600Kb resources used.

Try that with Logitech. ;)

And, while Logi has nice build qual, their support is non-existent. CM actually listens.
I have 3 diff firmwares I can load for different LOD and things...on a black cloth mousepad.

Well, I'm a Scot...I like efficiency. Bloat is not an option on a 2GB of RAM system mate. ;-)

Yes, every Mb counts in my mind.

IMO, these are elegant drivers; they do what they are told and stay out of the way.

that's a fine looking mouse. i go through a mouse in about 3 months. been using lasers for a few years - id never go back to optical. it's the lights.

i always buy logitech, no idea why - theyre useless. the buttons fail. brand loyalty or something.

ps:
we need to sort these oversized images

hard, probably. we could backup the db, download v2.01b of some guys 'mod', 3 years in development, cross our fingers. or, we could set a max-width with a descendant css selector on the postbody class, instant 1 line edit to the style sheet style.

most people is stupid. (i googled) http://www.google.co.uk/#q=are+most+peo ... are+stupid
