Pros: Stores receiver on bottom, inexpensive.

Cons: Signal range is a bit short, short battery life.

Review: I have purchased two of these. I gave the first away to a friend as I replaced it from a Logitech. A mistake I will not repeat. I am on a PowerBook with OS X 10.4.2 and now that I have the second Microsoft mouse I am happy again. It just works and works ...

The Bottom Line: Great little mouse to use with your laptop computer.
