Bij Rojak Pot hebben ze een review on line gegooid van de Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer. Deze muis is voorzien van optische technologie, waarmee het oppervlak zo'n 1500 keer per seconde wordt gescand. De Explorer maakt gebruik van een USB-aansluiting, maar is ook op een PS/2-poort te gebruiken door middel van een adaptertje. Verder heeft de muis vijf knoppen en een scrollwieltje. Over de prestaties is men zeer te spreken:
Microsoft's hardware department have a winner again in their hands. Even years ago, whenever someone mentions a Microsoft mouse, everyone would go... "OOooooo". Microsoft has always been known for its quality. Take their Natural Keyboard or Sidewinder range of flight sticks for instance. All are of high quality and usually have cutting edge technology.
The Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer is no exception. Superb performance, cutting edge technology, ergonomic design. What else can you ask for in a mouse? But perhaps, force feedback maybe?
The only quirk I encountered was the IntelliPoint software. It would be nice for Microsoft to include the latest version. But then again. it would be impossible for them to do so, as Windows ME has just been released recently. ;D
Also, the size of the mouse might not appeal to some and it's only for right handed users. Therefore, I would advise you to check it out at a store near you before buying it.
