Reviews of the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 5000
-
CNET Review
The Good: Contoured design for both left and right hands; five customizable buttons; clear optical laser.
The Bad: Hard-to-access side buttons; short, three-foot range; plastic is slippery; warranty information is difficult to find.
The Bottom Line: The Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 5000 is a good precision mouse for left-handers, but righties would be better off with a mouse designed for that hand.
Manufacturer: Microsoft Corp.
Part number: 63A-00001
