If you try the MicroSoft mouse you you would find the $20
difference to be minimal.  The feel of the MicroSoft mouse
is just clearly superior to other mice in that price range!

And, by the way, I do not work for MicroSoft or am in any way
related to them - just an impressed consumer.  I am, of course,
referring to the MicroSoft II mouse (the rounded white one).

Richard
