Top 5 laptop mice

I’m planning to buy a note- or a netbook for collage soon
so I looked around in shops and I’ve found some really nice laptop mice from which I will buy one soon too.

5# Logitech V550

A simple mouse with simple look. This little is the Logitech V550 it is powered by two AA batteries, that’s a bit big and heavy for a laptop but you will get over a year of use from them.

The thing that makes this mouse special is the little silver dock that you can stick on to any machine and dock the mice on to it, it will stay there and won’t have to carry around two things but the dock looks ugly and it won’t fit into your bag like this so it does not have big sense.

4# Logitech VX nano

Logitech and Microsoft is the name of good mice, now this is the high tech mouse with LEDs and a special click wheel for the ease of scrolling. It only has one problem I cant understand why Logitech is hiding the dongle under the cap of the batteries

3# Microsoft Presenter mouse

This mice is awesome it hasn’t got the best design of all and it dongle is a bigger type to but it fits nicely into the little plastic thingy shipped with the mouse however it would just be better if the dongle could rest in the notebook while traveling, this mouse is special because you can turn it and you get a presentation remote with a laser pointer.

2# Microsoft ARCnmice2

Microsoft’s Arc mice is the most comfortable notebook mice you could imagine, it is big enough for use on a desktop but you can fold it together and it becomes small and portable. its usb dongle isn’t as small than the Logitech ones but it isn’t to bad either and it can be securely stored when folded inside the mouse, this provides easy and fast access to it too. how ever you have to get use to it use because the laser is at its very beginning and it does not exactly move than other mice.

1# icon7 Twister Evolution

nmice1 I remember the first day when I saw an icon7 product in a store and I immediately knew it that this company will take it of with Logitech and Microsoft. The Design of this Mouse is a bit to cheep but the idea is awesome, and now looking back the previous mice, this is merging its ideas, how ever I’m sure that it isn’t as comfortable than the arc and doesn’t hold its self as strong to the notebook than the V550 but this is the best one.
every Mouse needs power the most of them gain it from batteries but this one is charging its self over the dongle, and this mice works as a remote as well. but just watch the video it shows everything.

The Vista effect

I’m sure that you have heard a lot of bad about Vista,

Windows Vista the second most popular operating system on the world, however everybody is fighting against it, people are  not even trying it out because of a huge media scam against it.

But is it really just a pre beta of Windows 7?
isn’t vista any more than an unready OS lunched to make money?

To know more about it, let’s go back in time. Windows XP was released in late 2001 after it Microsoft directly started to work on their next new project Longhorn.
But before going further let me tell you about the success of XP an operating system that is running on more hundreds of millions of Computers even 7 years after its lunch, in 2001 people loved its bizarre “bon-bon” design, and everyone knows what XP is and everyone has used it, Microsoft’s product was the one and only choice if you wanted to buy a pc in Europe.
So MS had to make something new, something that should change the hole feeling of computing, and the ideas of Windows Longhorn were awesome but I really mean fucking awesome, a product as awesome as it just could be with a stupid name and no future.

this is how Longhorn should looked like

 

Longhorn has become a legend, the dream of every geek and it died. its code was to weak to survive and MS had to drop the project and start everything from scratch with a new name Windows Vista

after a few years of development vista was ready to get in to the stores and on to the computers all around the world, but Microsoft made a lots of failures with there newest OS.

Home Basic

Windows Vista lunched in four different versions, one of these was the Home Basic, a version that had nothing inside it, no aero, no media center, nothing. it is a version that is even weaker than the 7 year old XP and it cost nearly the same price than the home premium edition.

Ultimate Extras

Microsoft also made a version called Ultimate that merged the ideas of the Home Premium and Business edition, but as a every day user it had just one thing that made you believe that you need a Ultimate edition, the Ultimate Extras, small applications from MS only for the User of the Ultimate edition, but after a few months waiting for a new game or something nothing came.

UAC

User Account Control is something very important and that’s the thing what make vista as secure as it is, but people just couldn’t handle it.

an other problem of it was that vista needs god hardware, lots of memory and god graphics what people hated. Why to pay for two gigs of RAM?
But no one is seeing that price drop caused by vista, that people can’t sell PC with 256MB ram with the newest OS anymore. Thanks to Vista Quality hardware hit the shelves with tiny prices, it forced companies to put god graphics into there Computers so now days every laptop has a GPU god enough to play quality games like HL2.

Vista is hated by the People because of a media wave fighting against it and telling that it is a shame and I don’t mean now the apple ads full with lies but the written pcmags and youtubers. Now bizarre is that exactly the opposite is happening with seven, I heard people talking about how awesome seven will be who don’t even saw an image of it’s desktop.

I don’t know what do you think about it?
