2 Orchids and 1 Onion to Microsoft
I have just received a free presentation mouse courtesy of Microsoft. It is basically a mouse that has buttons on the bottom to use to navigate around the PowerPoint slides. It also has a build in lazer pointer. Thanks guys it is much appreciated and will be much used.
However, the packaging had a rather strange warning written on it, and I quote below:
“Important: You must install a newer software version from the Web (rather than the enclosed CD) for full device functionality. One step 3…install software version 6.02 from the Web instead of using the CD enclosed…”
What is the point of enclosing a CD that you must specifically NOT USE? I am not quite sure what the point of the CD is. Can anybody explain?

Craig. Very cool – but be aware of using it in presentations. Reason being the optical mouse has a red light which shines out from underneath. When you are on stage (particularly when in a darkened room/auditorium) the red light that shines/flashes is very irritating to the audience ! As the mouse is in your hand yo never see it but the audience clearly does. I saw this practicaly kill a companies presentation for a very large ERP tender bid.
Yes, but the new MS mouse has got some sort of invisible lazer beam, so you cannot see it in the dark! They must have listened to some customer feedback!
