Microsoft Hardware has debuted the SideWinder Mouse at the Gernan Games Convention. The company is hailing the product as the first gaming mouse "built from the ground up."
The SideWinder Mouse was engineered to provide custom tuning tools and a design for ultimate handling. Features include one-touch access to Windows Vista Games Explorer, Quick Turn — a performance-enhancing macro that lets users check their perimeter from wherever they are in-game — the "first-ever" LCD on a gaming mouse and a cable anchor that doubles as an accessories storage box.
The SideWinder Mouse lets users create an individual gaming system with tuning options that allow them to personalize their SideWinder Mouse, including an adjustable weight tray, changeable mice feet with three materials for glide preference, DPI control and new software features. Gamers can record their own macros by tying a sequence of actions into one press of a button.
