I'd like to know one thing though - do you guys use any special mouse pads and, if you own one, do you consider it a waste of money or a good buy i.e. the 50€ Razer mouse pads? I'm currently using my mouse on a wooden surface, which has the typically marbled woody look to it, and I see my cursor skip from time to time. Is that due to the marbled surface or is that a hardware flaw? My guess (educated guess) would be that its the wooden surface. Personally i have a cloth mousepad and i don't think its bad at all. Many people have the Exactmat (my friend has one) but i don't know that it matters too much. | ||

The thing is so old you can barely recognize the Logitech logo, and the paint has peeled off in multiple places. I picked up a Salmosa for $20 on a whim last year, and I absolutely love it. So much so that I can't believe I used an MX510 for an entire decade without ever trying out new mice. The MX510 is just so bulky and cumbersome in comparison. If you think your MX518 is a super awesome gaming mouse, it might be because you don't know any better. This is very true. The Salmosa is a breath of fresh air for fingertip gamers with short fingers. I railed on Razer heavily and angrily across the internets about 2 years ago when I purchased the copperhead because it's for fingertip gamers! only to find the thing was far far too goddamned long, it's a huge mouse due to it's length :/ The Salmosa regular (haven't tried mini) is amazing for someone with small hands and who is a fingertip gamer. Conssidering I have such small hands, it would've been better if I was a palmer but that's just how it is, I need a very small mouse. MX518 is bad in my opinion. What I do need though is a small mouse with many buttons for FPS games, I currently have this. http://images.google.com/images?q=microsoft intellimouse optical -explorer symmetrical&hl=en but I'd like something more modern, possibly even smaller and with another button on the left for my thumb. (I've been considering the Xai but goddamn it's expensive) | ||

It's in no way connected to the LMO known to SC players, its just smaller so its "mini plus". The shape is pretty terrible when I used it a few years ago and afaik. it does have 400 dpi and just as terrible sensor as the LMO. | ||

I loved the Intellimouse 3.0, and I loved it a lot. Unfortunately, they saw fit to make the 4.0 and drop the 3.0. I died a little inside. I used that mouse until the day it died and still keep it's corpse within arm's reach of my computer, just so I never forget it's gaming glory. MX518 was my next mouse of choice, and I've been recommending that mouse ever since. It has a really comfortable grip due to it's surprisingly large size. My only complaint ever was button number 8 sitting too far back behind the scroll wheel, I never used it. The Razer products seem to be designed to fit different hand gripping styles, and always bothered my hand a bit, especially the way they prefer "dead space" between parts of your hand and the mouse. I use a more resting position on my mice, so I prefer a mouse designed for such. Though, I have to admit, the Naga has a whole crap top of buttons on the side. I like buttons, a lot. So I scooped up the shiny for my current rig, but still keep my MX518 on standby. BTW, the Naga is too small... I expected a 17 button mouse not to leave half my hand off the back. Gives it a nice pivot point, but stresses my arm a bit because of it.  | ||
