Mouse Razer DeathAdder
After replacing damned dell keyboard with something usable, I had real urge to replace the mouse as well. I’ve got used to Logitech Marble Trackball and MX900 mouse ergonomic designs, so standard mouse was actually putting a lot of pain in my wrist.
It looks like symmetric mice just don’t work with my wrist any more.
As I like to play a good game from time to time, I have started to look for some nice gaming mouse. “Once goats death(die) ” I had a look at Logitech G9 and G5 - they didn’t really convinced me. Brief look at Microsoft range, caught my eye on the mouse which they made in cooperation with Razer, it was really good on my wrist but kind of old now.
I have decided that I want a Razer mouse. At that point I was really struggling. There was no shop on Tottenham Court Road which had any Razers. I had to decide with knowledge based on reviews read on the Internet. DAMN! For some time I was convinced that Lachesis would be the best mouse for me. But reading reviews pushed me away, it was apparently a very good high spec mouse, but unfortunately - symmetric design. So I had to resort to a lower model and DeathAdder started to grow on me.
Now I just love that mouse. It’s great performance, slides like on butter. Fits my palm perfectly, no strain on my wrist. Even side buttons just work! under Gnome and FIrefox. This is brilliant, as I have previously spent hours to get MX900 up with all its buttons.
Oh and I thought that the lights on the mouse are going to be annoying. Fortunately, they are not. Maybe because I have the Guild Wars edition, which has orange instead of blue lights, this is acceptable.
back to Americas Army and some CIsco ASA install
I’ve spent most of the long weekend playing games and working.
Finally, after around 4 years of having the AA Account ( AAA
I’ve finished Special Forces training! This gave me access to some neat weaponry in the game. Also unlocked SF exclusive deployments. Most of the time i was playing SF Hospital, but now SF Snakeplains is my favourite. The only training which I didn’t finish is for becoming a Medic.
I have also lost about 1.5 days over the weekend replacing old Monowall FIrewall with a state of art CIsco ASA 5510 Security Plus. I have some suspicion that current SysOp has a bug in regard to Port Speed. When, you boot the box, ports, which are connected to gigabit start, to glow orange, as they should to indicate 1Gbps connection, but after the system has finished booting, they are back to green, telling me that they are 100Mbps. After disconnecting and connecting back the cables, they are back to orange .. 1Gbps.
Oh, also replacing the firewall and extended period of time of dis-connectivity caused Windows 2003 DNS server on AD controller to crash in a way that it wasn’t serving any queries any more… that is MS for you.
Metal Gear Acid 2
Finished, at last ! It has few more missions than expected, and one expected
Good entertainment , finished in under 20h game play.
Last few days
I have had a bad Saturday, due to food poisoning. I was sleeping for whole day on sat.
Sunday, with just uncomfy feeling I’ve spent day on shopping ( just food - sometimes happens ) and watching movies.
Tried to watch Oliver Twist, but it did not keep me for long. Then I’ve seen great movie by S. Spielberg Munich, really, really nice movie. But after that I placed a DVD with Crash in to my player… and this movie just made my day night. Amazing, if world is so freaked out as presented in this movie… it is just stunning.
Metal Gear , Metal Gear, I have forgot how great fun card game can be…. Before starting with movies on Sunday, I have spent few hours playing my AC!D 2 … After finished with game … I have realized that I am still thinking in turns… weird stuff.
Gaming
Wii
If Wii has such a nice controller… will have to definitely test it in a shop before buying.
But is it, without a doubt much better approach to human-game interaction, than everything else what I’ve seen, when it comes to default game controller.
