Strengths: very fast response time
Weaknesses: No driver for ps2 connector
Summary: I have this mouse shared on two machines with a switch. But the driver does not support the mouse in ps2 mode only usb mode. Had to get a usb convertor to make it work. It is kind of an expensive mouse considering the alternative mice that are available.

Strengths: Incredibly comfortable design with a good grip. Very precise and fast. Designed for medium/large hands with perfect button placement. Cool blue lights.
Weaknesses: Weight not adjustable. Location of profile switch. Skinny wires. Loud buttons.
Summary: Having used Logitech mice for many years now, I was skeptical I would find a competitor who could make a better mouse. So I decided to try out several mice at a local electronics store. At first I found myself leaning towards the Logitech MX518 mouse as my preferred choice, but once I came across the Razer DeathAdder, I knew computing would never be the same. The mouse has quite possibly the most comfortable grip and feel to it. It contours to your hand shape and positions your fingers perfectly on the buttons. The precision and speed is unparalleled right out of the box, but if you choose to install the included software, you can fine tune it even further. There are two LEDs that glow on the mouse, but can be turned off if desired. Despite its incredible feel, it does have a few limitations. First, it is a fairly light mouse compared to other mice on the market and there is no way to increase the weight. Second, there is a way to toggle through different speed profiles on the mouse, but the button is located on the bottom of the mouse. Finally, the buttons are fairly loud when clicked which can become an irritation for some people. If you can gloss over these limitations, you will enjoy one the best mice ever conceived.

Strengths: Ultra precision, well hand fitted
Weaknesses: none so far
Summary: In one simple sentence, this mouse is the best of the best.The mouse I have ever own includes Logitech MX310, 510, G5, G7, Microsoft IE3.0. But for cs purpose, this is the best I have used. You have to touch it to feel it. The pad I am using with it is Razor exact mat. I had QCK+ but I use it with IE3.0 in SC to get the best performace out of it.

Strengths: Excellent tracking, speed, and comfort. Good looking, long cord, rubberized top.
Weaknesses: The sides aren't rubberized like the top for some reason. The firmware has issues installing under Vista. The feet are flimsy, and due to their thickness, or lack their of, the mouse actually rubs slightly on the bottom.
Summary: Comfort ? Very comfortable mouse for right handed players. The top is rubberized, which feels and works great. For some reason though they didn't rubberize the sides of the mouse, which seems odd, and is a little annoying. The overall shape is very similar to the IE3.0 mouse, which I had used for nearly 5 years I believe.--Installation ? Installation was easy, just plug and play for the most part. You can install the razer drivers so you are able to setup different profiles and settings, but this isn't necessary to use the mouse. I ran into a problem upgrading the firmware for the mouse on Vista 64-bit, and the official website directions were not at all helpful. The cord is also nice and long.--Overall - This is the best mouse available out of the box for low sensitivity players. Most mice run into tracking issues when they are moved very fast. For players who have their sensitivity set very high this isn't a problem, as they tend not to move the mouse over a large area very quickly. For low sensitivity players like myself though, some mice start to apply negative/positive acceleration, or completely spaz out all together when moved too quickly.The Deathadder doesn't have this problem, as it has prefect tracking up to incredibly high speeds. It's possible to get other, much less expensive mice to track as well as the Deathadder by changing your USB polling rate, but this caused adverse effects with my IE3.0. Also, if you play in tournaments you aren't allowed to change the USB polling rate.

Strengths: Long Cable, Gold Connector, Ergonomic Right-Handed Design, 1000 Hz Polling Rate, 5 Programmable Buttons, 3G Laser for Awesome Tracking, Great Control, Perfect Control up to 3.92 m/s
Weaknesses: Slightly Curved Bottom with just adequate Teflon feet, Sides are made with shiny plastic that smudges easily and eventually develops blemishes that you need to clean constantly
Summary: Even though there are a few cons to this mouse, this is the best mouse I have ever used and was definitely worth the fifty dollars I payed for it. I switched to this mouse from a Razer Diamondback, which breaks easily, and it took me about a week to adjust to the curve of the mouse, but when I did, it definitely felt more natural in my hand and my movements felt more precise in game. It provides excellent tracking and its wheel is also very good because it has small indents in it so that you can move exactly one notch every time when you need to. However, for some mouse pads you might have to buy extra Teflon feet due to the slightly curved bottom. However, if you get past that you'll love this mouse whether you're a gamer or just use it for image design and office applications. I highly recommend this product and it was worth every penny.
