I can’t help but miss my Microsoft Intelimouse Explorer more and more. I bought a replacement Logitech mouse model M-BZ105A and the thing didn’t even last a full year. It’s been a huge disappointment as the mouse wheel caused a blister on my pointing finger, the wheel is difficult to get pressed directly down and often goes either left or right. Tonight the mouse acted as if moving the mouse was stuck unable to move left or right and finally just stopped responding. It’s the only mouse Logitech made that fits my hands even close to what the Intelimouse did. I can’t help but feel a bit cheated after spending sixty dollars on a device that can’t last even a year compared to the ten years of solid use my Intelimouse endured.

Thankfully I found that of all places NewEgg.com actually sells an older style Microsoft Intelimouse Explorer! I’m thrilled I hope to goodness it holds up to the standards of the last one. I just placed the order and am anxiously awaiting the new mouse. I really should have just bought another Magic Mouse and hooked it to Windows, but gaming would be difficult to adjust to the touch surface of the Magic Mouse.
