This is the most surreal thread I've seen in a while, yet I have an unsettling feeling that it's not supposed to be surreal...

I have one of those M$ IntelliMouse. I didn't buy it as it was a gift. And, yes, I did notice that. Which is why it's one of the few things with the name "Microsoft" on it that actually works right! When I installed Linux, that M$ mouse was recognized and configured during the install, and it works great.    OTOH, when I installed it on the old Win 95 system, I needed an install CD that unloaded at least 10MB of crap just to get the thing working.    :eek:  WTF does something as simple as a mouse need a goddam install CD? Especially a Microsoft mouse on a Microsoft op-sys.  :confused:  That's just plain nuts.

i see! we're talking about a Microsoft intellimouse are we? this thread almost makes sense now...

It's not really Microsoft, they don't make hardware, they just like to pay every now and again for people to stamp the Microsoft logo on keyboards and mice and so on.

I have microsofts intellimouse and it works great, never had one problem.

In fact when I got it on my online gaming ability increased by about 20%.
