* Most Powerful Optical Technology in the World!
Have you ever lost your cursor? You're not alone. Microsoft has a
revolutionary new solution -- IntelliEye optical technology. This
entirely new, proprietary technology delivers the fastest, most accurate
mouse available today. As a result, Microsoft IntelliMouse Optical
provides up to four times the performance of other optical mice. This
superior technology translates into precise cursor movement and unmatched
responsiveness.
* Both left- and right-handed users can comfortably experience the superior
performance of Microsoft's new IntelliEye optical technology.
* The new IntelliPoint software enables both PC and Mac users to experience
functionality well beyond the typical mouse.
* Replacing the mouse ball with an optical sensor means there are no moving
parts to collect dirt, dust and grime and no ball to be cleaned.
* IntelliMouse Optical works on virtually any surface, eliminating the need
for a mouse pad.
* Five programmable buttons
All five buttons, including the wheel button, can be easily reprogrammed
to perform popular commands in your favorite applications with a single
touch. For example: The same button can mean Cut in Word and Insert
Comment in Excel. The side buttons are set by default for easy forward
and back Internet navigation.
* Accelerated scrolling
Users can move through documents quickly without having to click on the
scroll bar. Accelerated scrolling reacts to how quickly users roll the
wheel, allowing for faster movement through Web pages and computer
applications. This allows you to cover more area in less time, increasing
scrolling speed on average 28% (on three or more pages).

It's hard to believe that Microsoft is already 30 years old. The company that made Redmond, Washington, a household name was actually founded in 1975 in another city by two young Seattle men, one of whom was a college dropout. From this inauspicious beginning came an equally improbable vision: A personal computer on every desk and in every home. Thirty years later, it seems so obvious. But at the time, when only a handful of people knew what a personal computer was, it was a great leap of faith and daring.
