    got a laser mouse

    this thing is pretty nice! no more skipping on my wood desk. the real test will be when I have to take it to a lanparty at somebody's house with an odd table surface like glass. but so far I luv it.

    it's a logitech mx400 laser.. got it for $32 at Circuit City

    they are not the same thing. they work the same yes, but the laser uses a focused beam instead of blurry light reflecting in to the lens. they just came out in the last year, I already had an old school optical mouse (Microsoft), and it performed poorly compared to this thing.

    so this gives a laser higher precision and accuracy because it can see every little pit in the surface.

    also my logitech has an infared laser, so you can't actually see any light.
