G5 Mouse

I never really realized how wimpy mice were, until I decided to pick up a G5.

With this mouse, you can change the dpi (on the fly), weight, customize the buttons based on what exe is running... It's not like that would be hard to implement for any other mouse, but the standard drivers do it nicely.

I mean really, I want to FEEL something when I use a mouse, ball mice were nice in that respect. But only that, they sucked overall. Oh, getting nostalgic for the 90's again. I remember one time I tried to have an imaginary friend, and we were playing tag on a fine sunny day. I felt pretty stupid running around the street all by myself, I had thought they appeared or something when you started to pretend they exist. I think that's the first time I was ever disappointed. This other time my friends and I found a hole for a fence post, so we put some sod and leaves over it to make a booby trap. When we went to check on it the next day, Ben had tripped... It took me a few moments to realize that he was thigh deep in our trap. I've always really liked high places, I guess it started when I used the radio antenna tower to get onto my next door neighbour's house. It was only a bungalow, but when you're only 3 feet tall you think everything is enormous. Being five fucking rocked.
