The "New Toys" Thread

I just want a laptop mouse that has 4 way scroll, back and forward buttons, and runs on AA batteries....so far I haven't found one that got all of the above yet.
 
VX Nano, 'cept it runs on AAA's

and lawn mower driving FTW

Logitech VX Nano Granted, it uses AAA batteries, but I have an estimated 104 days left on these ones after about 3 months of use. Now, unless you have some odd aversion to the addition of a document flip button, I don't see why this couldn't suffice.
 
You can also use uber options to map any function you want to any button. Works great with the MX Revolution.
 
Unless you run Linux :mad:
 
No, as with all things, it's everyone else's fault but mine.
 
I was fed up with having to delete a pile of stuff if I wanted to install a new program, so I bought a new drive.
500GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.11.

Tried that, did nothing. Now I have no problem saying that I probably did something wrong, but I also heard that the fix doesn't work for everyone. If I could have all 8 buttons again I would be a very happy camper. I would also like it if I could get Wine to cooperate. I think I'll be getting an Nvidia card soon too.

Try installing windows, it could take half an hour but after that everything will work fine. :mrgreen:

Awesome! What are you using it with?
 
PS3 and GT5 for now until I get some more PS3 racing games.
 
Just a question about the PS3, can you just plug in any USB steering wheel to it? I have an old red MOMO and thinking about getting a PS3...wondering if that would work or not.
