I just got a microsift wireless laser 5000 (from some closeout place, real cheap so no editorials on the actual mouse).

anyways, I don't really notice that much difference between this one and my old mouse (corded optical), specifically how smooth and fast some of the aiming is in FPS games (FEAR MP I get like 50-60 fps).

anyways, does a mousepad actually make a difference? I am just using the top of my keyboard drawer in my desk, it's not glossy at all either.

also, I'm using the software that come with it (microsoft mouse shit).

A mousepad can be useful if your desk is somewhat mirroring, otherwise this was more relevant for mice with a ball than for those optical, and yeah maybe try without the microsoft app if it doesn't bring any specific function.

haaha yeah, but I was in some warehouse store with all kinds of cheap shit, like a kid in the candy store.... it was only $20 so no big deal.
