    I've got it! Great keyboard, but the mouse is not!!! for gaming. After a "click" the mouse pointer lags, because of limited bandwidth between mouse and receiver, and the mouse has a 40 hz refresh rate!!!
    Bevare, the mouse is NOT!!! for gaming!!!.

    I tried out the mouse and the battery makes it VERY heavy to move.

    I got a non-pro version for $40 because it was mismarked. One of the best things I ever bought.

    The Intellimouse Explorer is great for gaming. It is very light. Unfortunately, you cant use ist on anything with heavily repeating patterns eg my mouse mat has diagonal lines and when you move exactly along them it flids up. USB is a necessary for gaming. Either that or use a program such as ps2rate for changing the number of ps/2 port readings every second.

    The intellimouse is good for gaming, but you have to learn to be a bit more controlled, cause if you try and spin round at the speed of light the you end up looking straight up spinning around. Also it's not so good for really presice work unless you got a really frictionless mousemat.

    The normal intelimouse is better for paint etc cause it's pads underneath are of a teflon like material.
