I just want to say, I AGREE! Braided cords suck! If you like them, FINE! I still think they SUCK!

I am a little confused by this mouse bungee thing.. can you FEEL it pulling your mouse back or what? I'd hate that and it'd irk me to hell.
Also - Hows that Xai working out? I'm tied between getting it and a g500 (Using a g5 now but the scroll wheel / side buttons are worn) |

|
I vote for pass it over a flame also. I love braided cable.

The G500 uses tact switches for the side buttons, like the new G5 afaik. The old G5 with one side button used a micro switch which feels much better. The mouse wheel is really nice though on the G500. I'd go with the G500 if you like to have lots of buttons, and the Xai if you want something that's more bare but very nice at it. I like the Xai more because it uses micro switches for all the buttons.

Please be trolling.
The mechanical keyboard user in me says "oh! microswitches!" but the buyer in me says $90 is too much for a very basic looking mouse (As much as I DO love steelseries) Going to head down to BestBuy (Yeah, but its cheaper than newegg) in a few hours and pick up a g500. |

I've had my G5 for 3 years now and my braided cable isn't frayed at all.
I game on it everyday. |
