After replacing damned dell keyboard with something usable, I had real urge to replace the mouse as well. I’ve got used to Logitech Marble Trackball and MX900 mouse ergonomic designs, so  standard mouse was actually putting a lot of pain in my wrist.

It looks like symmetric mice just don’t work with my wrist any more.

As I like to play a good game from time to time, I have started to look for some nice gaming mouse. “Once goats death(die) ” I had a look at Logitech G9 and G5 – they didn’t really convinced me. Brief look at Microsoft range, caught my eye on the mouse which they made in cooperation with Razer, it was really good on my wrist but kind of old now.

I have decided that I want a Razer mouse. At that point I was really struggling. There was no shop on Tottenham Court Road which had any Razers. I had to decide with knowledge based on reviews read on the Internet. DAMN! For some time I was convinced that Lachesis would be the best mouse for me. But reading reviews pushed me away, it was apparently a very good high spec mouse, but unfortunately – symmetric design. So I had to resort to a lower model and DeathAdder started to grow on me.

Now I just love that mouse. It’s great performance, slides like on butter. Fits my palm perfectly, no strain on my wrist. Even side buttons just work! under Gnome and FIrefox. This is brilliant, as I have previously spent hours to get MX900 up with all its buttons.

Oh and I thought that the lights on the mouse are going to be annoying. Fortunately, they are not. Maybe because I have the Guild Wars edition, which has orange instead of blue lights, this is acceptable.
