"Rapha played really good; it's hard to play a player like him. He won this fight, but Spartaaaa are really hungry for revenge."

"Based on the research, it's obvious that the gaming market has outgrown many commonly held stereotypes about the relative homogeneity of video gamers," said Adam Wright, Director of Research for Ipsos MediaCT. "Today's gamers represent a wide variety of demographic groups: men and women, kids, parents and grandparents, younger and older consumers. All this underscores the fact that gaming has become a mainstream medium in this country that appeals to people from all walks of life."

Many of the performance issues related to mice simply come down to personal preference. Teflon mouse feet vs. plastic mouse feet is one of those things. There is one problem, however, that is not subjective:

Laser mice skip easily when used at low sensitivities. The Sidewinder X5 is no exception to this rule. When set at 400DPI and a low in-game/OS sensitivity, moving the Sidewinder X5 quickly caused it to skip nearly on command.

With that being said, I want to add that most gamers probably will not encounter this sort of skipping, simply because they won’t be using very low sensitivites.

As mentioned before, the number pad detaches and moves over to the left side of the keyboard. This is accomplished via a proprietary connector and a couple of magnets. Once the numpad gets near the magnets on the keyboard, it snaps itself into place perfectly. You don’t have to dick around with aligning the connectors or anything–it’s a very seamless transition.
