Both main buttons sit perfectly under your fingers and provide a pleasing yet not obnoxious *click* to every press. not too firm, not too soft and no mush to be found. Every keypress is simply a well orchestrated delight that provides you not only with confidence but clear positive feedback and breaking point of the click. what about the wheel? Lightly notched, firm and response with the same switch quality found all over the device. The cable is braided and non too firm and all the contacts on the usb side seem of stellar quality. and finally, the finish. a silver front fading to a pure white, a silver windows logo adorns the rear where you will also find the delightfully ungarish rgb lighting, not only does it avoid being obnoxious it can be set to be software dependant on colour. what else of the software? adjustable lift off, adjustable polling rate, adjustable rgb and general sensitivity, you don't even need to go fishing around on the web to find them. upon a connection to the pc windows will promptly recognize the mouse and ask if you would like to proceed with the install. simples. So that's it then. an old classic. only.... Brilliant.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has the rubber wear problem first noted in 2018 been resolved, i.e. is there a mark 2, or is one planned?**
A: No, after about a year the black rubberized sides start to disintegrate and become sticky. Not much you can do about it. It's obviously a money spinner for Microsoft as the mouse would otherwise last 10 years or more.

**Q: Anyone using this mouse for FPS games??**
A: Great mouse. But the silicone on the sides of the mouse didn’t last a month and flakes off.

**Q: Does the scroll wheel click when scrolled or is the movement fluid?**
A: There is a slight clicking and the wheel stops quickly if you try to spin it with a "flick". It has a notched feel to the action. So using the well for window scrolling results in "steps" of the scroll bar similar to if you were using the arrow keys. I like this behaviour personally, but it depends on personal preference.

**Q: Is there a driver that allows me to customize the side button (turn it off!)? This uses the basic "Microsoft compliant device" driver which does not.**
A: You can download and install Microsoft driver for Intellimouse.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the holy grail of pc mice.

must have mouse, stable, comfortable,as huge as for palm, beautiful color. Very good for gaming and all.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ On the whole its great, but one small thing...
*by S***T on 28 August 2018*

I used to have an Intellimouse way back in the day and loved it. For the past good few years I've had a Logitech G500 which I really liked but it recently became faulty. I remembered how much I used to like the Intellimouse, and while I do game I use my PC a lot for a variety of different things so wasn't too bothered about buying a "gaming mouse" so to speak. So the classic Intelli certainly has a nice, clean and sleek look to it. I really like the white led light that illuminates from the bottom. The buttons are well placed and it feels great in the hand, and just about the right weight as well. The cable is plastic which doesn't bother me but I know some people prefer a fabric cable. It works straight out of the box which is great, but you can install the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center (download) if you wish to configure all the buttons for different commands and also the DPI rate up to 3200 (default 1600). My only one little gripe is I have a cloth mouse mat which has white text in the middle of it. The sensor doesn't seem to like going over this text and the cursor on the screen stutters in its movement. If I use the mouse on a purely black part of the mousemat it works great, so I've a feeling the mouse sensor maybe isn't the best. I've had to go an order a new plain mousemat because of it (it works fine also just on the desk but I like having a mousemat). All in all though, I really like this mouse and would recommend it - just watch out for the issue I've mentioned!
