Hey, i need a new mouse cause my old Razer Diamondback stopped working ;)
I'm interested in: Logitec G5, Razer Lachesis, Razer Boomslang, Razer Copperhead and Microsoft Habu.
Please tell me your experiences with those mice. Maybe you know some other good mice, but please don't tell me about the Logitec MX518, I really hate this mainstream noob mouse ;)

lachesis = shit.. only the laser is good -.-
I ordered one :p
G5 - Does not perform any better than the mx518, rather worse. Only "advantage" might be the weightsystem and built in 1000hz in the drivers. The laser is not exactly in the middle which leads to a strange feeling about the movement (atleast for me)
Copperhead: When I tested it, it had the same laser issues as the G5 (random flicking at high speeds). Drivers are good, built in 1000hz. The shape is a bit bigger than the DB, so if you're used to that I'd recommend you to buy the DB G3, as it uses the best optics at the moment.
Habu: Probably the same laser problems as all the other mice.
Lachesis: Supposed to have a good laser engine. Didn't test it.
Boomslang: Some ppl like it, others (majority) hate it. I can sell you an old Boomslang 2100 for 10€ + shipping ;-)
Conclusion: Don't buy overprized laser crap, go for optical mice. Mx518, Razer DeathAdder, DiamondBack 3G or any older MS mouse (1.1, 3.0) will not cause you any trouble.
without a doubt the deathadder is the best of them. Im sure its got the same technology of the diamondback but the shape is FAR friendler to a right handed player
*my 2 cents
go for DeathAdder :)
this one :P
