Microsoft ARC
Positive Things.
~Folds up for easy storage in your laptop bag
~Battery life is great (I have had mine for 6 months and am still using the batteries that came with it)
~Wireless
~Wireless receiver magnetically sticks to bottom of mouse for easy storage (and to prevent you from loosing the little guy in your laptop case)
~Side thumb button
~Can be configured for right AND left handed users (with the catch of needed software)
~Has been tested at a working range at 25 feet (tested this myself, Microsoft states 30 feet, but i was only able to get it working at a max distance of 25feet...)
~Different colors (Red and Black)
~Scroll wheel + it clicks!


Negative Things.
~CAN be uncomfortable for people with larger hands
~2.4GHZ so may not work properly when a cordless phone is near (although i had no problems...)
~Requires software to change for left handed users / change thumb buttons function


End Result.....
The end result is a decent mouse for people with laptops, and are looking for a fairly cheap mouse, how ever i would NOT recommend this mouse to people that don't care if its wireless or wired and have a bit more space in there laptop bag, i would instead recommend the Logitech G5 mouse, how ever if you are looking for a wireless mouse, dont want something more then 60bucks, and are short on space in your laptop bag, this mouse is just what you are looking for!

Im still intel and used to be AMD. AMD ruled the Single core world but just cant seem to keep up in the multi core world. I think AMD has a better price point for upper mid range cpu currently.
