    K, i'm getting ready to buy my mouse for my new dell m140. I'm looking at the logitech v200 and the microsoft 6000 laser mouse. Both are wireless. The microsoft is only 5 bucks more expensive and is a laser mouse where the logitech is optical. Both have the tilt wheel and such. My main question comes up from the fact that i've read bad things about the microsoft 4000 optical (mainly bad tilt wheel performance, and a bad range). Does anyoneknow if the 6000 shares the same problems??? It's a laser so i assume its tracking is better, but should i get it over the logitech v200??
    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    i'm guessing you're talking about the MS notebook laser 6000, I have the Laser 6000 full size mouse and it is fantastic, It's wheel doesn't have the detents like some people like but i really like that about it. The range isn't as good as logitech, but it is more than enough for me.
