Three weeks since I purchased it, and a broken scroll wheel. My Amazon review has changed from 5 stars to 2 stars. I would not recommend this mouse to a friend.

Back to Logitech mice for me. And I was so happy when I got this mouse… I guess aesthetics only go so far when a device’s functionality is what really matters.

Microsoft got something right, the Arc Mouse

by bhartsock on Oct.19, 2008, under Uncategorized

Update: Scroll wheel broken in 3 weeks time.

Today, on an impulse, I bought the Arc mouse. I needed a cordless mouse for my notebook, since unwinding my current mouse cord was losing nerd points for me. After walking through Best Buy, I saw the Arc. A beautiful, simplistic mouse that was the size of a regular mouse, yet small enough to be a notebook mouse at the same time.

It doesn’t have bells and whistles, but it works. It is exactly what I was looking for.

Like any new mouse, it took some time getting used to. It is very sensitive and can be frustrating for the first few minutes.

Switcheroo

Today I was thinking, and I realized something odd. My development computer is Windows. My personal computer is Ubuntu. Weird huh?
