    lolz, looks cool, but it'll probably be as uncomfortable as hell though ( a pain to press the buttons 2)

    looking forward to seeing this regardless

    sometimes I feel lost... than I remember I'm not going anywhere.

    I dont see this being a...gaming mouse, Also, you should make it wireless so you can have fun with your friends. "Why the hell is he pulling out an altoids tin?

    lol

    dude, thats just awesome.
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    I have a buddy who has a wireless altoid tin mouse. It owns, watching him play WC3 with an altoid tin.

    Heh heh, I bet it's hilarious, especially when people that aren't really computer "know-hows" and also don't get Altoids, ever, come by, heh heh...

    I played the demo for WarCraft 3, that was fun... too bad the BattleChest is still $40 and it's been out for ages...
