Intellimouse: Quake or Not Quake?
Dan Lo
Hello all,
I am set to purchase a new mouse; has anyone used the Intellimouse
with Quake2? Is the wheel configurable? Is it worth it? Or should I
just settle for a nice Logitech?
Any comments would be appreciated...
Thanks in advance,

My Intellimouse crapped out on me after about a month. I was able to
take it back to the store, and got a Logitech. BTW, I got the one
without the wheel. The Logitech Mouseman. It's a great mouse. Real
comfortable, and my aiming is even more dead on.
Oh, and pick up a Curtis Fas Trac mousepad if you don't have one. The
feel is much better than those rubber/cloth pads.
Now I only need Logitech eye implants, and I will be invincible!

I use one. You can roll the wheel up and down for functions, and also click it for a third button.
It works great

Works fine. The only advantage of the Logitech is that it has another
button... Intellimouse has 2 reg buttons, the wheel, and pushing the
wheel gives you mouse3. I think its the same for the logitech, and
there is a fourth button for the thumb...

The mouse systems scroll mouse is the scroll mouse to get imo.
However the wheel doesn't seem to be compatible with Q2 to my knowledge.
But you still have 5 other user programmable buttons on it and it's feel
of layout is by far the best I've ever used.

I use the Intellimouse in Quake 2 and yes,you can use the wheel button as a
third button.

i just bought the Logitech Mouseman+ It's a little cheaper than the
Microsoft and it has 4 buttons plus the wheel. Very cool, but it feels much
different from the MS, so play with one before u buy.
