EPTMore "neutral" shape compared to LMO.
1000 DPI vs 400 DPI
Thinner cord.
Can be found for $10(less than mini optical)
similar size
Still optical.
Pretty good if you plan on updating your mouse for SCII.

my mx518 runs on 1800 or something, and its not enough, i actually have mouse speed scaled up on windows a little bit, i guess 2k dpi would do just right for me. But 1k? That either means i can't reach half of my screens pixels or i feel completly alienated by the incredibly slow mouse movement x) i can't even think of just 400 without getting brain damage! | ||

I could be wrong, but isn't dpi just a measurement of how often the mouse is checking for position? I've always related dpi to how accurate a mouse will be, as opposed to how fast it is. edit: looked it up, guess speed is a factor too. Now I feel dumb | ||

Don't see much benefit either  | ||

I've always related dpi to how accurate a mouse will be, as opposed to how fast it is. Nah, DPI is dots per inch means if you move a 400 DPI mouse one inch with the mouse on "pure" settings then it will go 400 pixels which means it takes 4 inches to go 1600 pixels (not even the width of some monitors). | ||

Try to draw a straight vertical or horisontal line in paint(or elsewhere), if that will be easy then it has prediction if it will be almost impossible then it doesnt. Will do, just a sec. | ||

I think I'll buy 2 or 3 because they will inevitably be discontinued and when it breaks the warranty will be for something else. | ||

I have my MX518 set on 2nd lowest setting (windows setting set at exactly the middle-point). Anything above that, and I can't even see where my mouse moves with a minor flick. And I play on 1600x1050 resolution. | ||
