Microsoft Mice: Another Reason to Love Them

I’ve always been a big fan of the Microsoft Mouse line, and now with Vista, a new reason: Instant View. This is a great new feature in the next version on the IntelliPoint software. I’ve been using a bit of a hack since I installed Vista back in November. So it’s nice to be using a copy of IntelliPoint that is actually supposed to work with Vista.

I’ve got to say, the new Instant View feature is a very nice touch, and one that I really prefer to Aero’s Flip 3D (Windows+Tab) feature (Instant View has a fair bit less lag). This is really an impressive feature, though not perfect. While it does work on multi-monitor setups, Flip 3D is far more graceful about it.

Try it, I’m quite certain you’ll like it.
