Cheap mice are available with wide ranges of DPI. Take a look a the ads in Computer Shopper. So says that all cheap mice are serial and 200 DPI! Sheesh, that is simply not true. Cheap mice are, probably, not as sturdy as expensive mice, but my experience with them has been very positive! I have a cheap 3 button mouse with widely variable DPI and a good ballistic response. It works very well. I have a much more expensive two button mouse. It never worked very well. Mark
