> Classic IntelliMouse was dead on arrival by the gaming community I was competitive gamer during that era (played for CS clan The Speakeasy Offensive, or TSO). Only the first release had a sub-par sensor (think 100 dpi?), but everything afterwards dominated traditional trackball mice. By the time my favorite mouse of all time was released in 2002 (Logitech MX500), I don't know of a single serious gamer that wasn't using optical.
