System requirements

For a Microsoft Windows based computer, the operating systems may be Windows 2000 SP4 or higher, Windows XP or Windows Vista. The hard drive space may be 45 MB free (install 100 MB). There must be a CD-ROM drive and a USB port.

For a Macintosh based computer, the operating system may be Mac OS X v10.2-10.4.x (excluding Mac OS X v10.0-10.1). The hard drive space may be 15 MB free (install 30 MB). There must be a CD-ROM drive and a USB port.

4-way scrolling

There is an innovative tilt wheel. Using this it is possible to scroll upwards and downwards as well as from one side to another. This is an excellent method to move through documents, spreadsheets and web pages. The complete scroll wheel tilts from one side to other and acts as a button. Smooth and accurate movement depends on how fast the user rolls the wheel. In case of a very wide worksheet, the user can tilt the wheel from one side to other to scroll right and left and there is no need to click the tiny scroll arrows.

Magnifier

The Magnifier is similar to a magnifying glass that is held up on the computer screen. A simple press and hold movement enlarges the region of the screen that fits inside the lens. It is possible to adjust the size of the lens and the level of magnification.

Battery life

It is possible to work with less interruption with a long battery life of 6 months. Microsoft wireless keyboards and mice on their own enter a standby mode when they are inactive for a specific duration of time. Due to this unnecessary battery drain is minimized. The light in the optical sensor of the mouse illuminates with the brightness required to supply the optimal tracking power. The compact notebook mice have handy snap-in receivers that plug in when the user is ready to work. These snap in the mouse when the user travels. Due to this battery life is further enhanced. The Intelligent Power System is a breakthrough by Microsoft. It has features due to which wireless freedom is made very easy. The convenient docking station works similar to the charger of the cordless home phone. There is smarter power management like battery status indicator, customizable performance slider and intelligent backlighting. Due to such features it is ensured that the mouse preserves power for maximum productivity. Each device has weeks of usable time from a single charge.

Ergonomic design

Microsoft’s ergonomically designed mice are very easy to use and comfortable. All Microsoft hardware products are designed by experienced ergonomists. The ergonomic mouse is as comfortable as a handshake. Innovative and ergonomic design is combined with soft touch materials. This remarkable mouse places the hand in a relaxed and natural position. There is a thumb scoop that imitates the natural hand grip.
