Razer Develops 1000 DPI Optical Gaming Mouse

gameaxx writes "Back in 2002, Slashdot ran a piece on what the best mouse for precision PC gaming was, and there was a debate over whether the optomechanical Razer Boomslang running at 2000 dpi was the uber gaming mouse, or the optical mice from Logitech or Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 running at 800 dpi were the best precision gaming mice to have. Now, Razer has just announced (PDF link) the upcoming February 2004 release of a ultra-precise 1000 dpi gaming mouse called the Razer Viper. At 1000 dpi, this breaks all the boundaries set by bigwigs like Logitech and Microsoft, whose mice max out at 800 dpi. Whether this settles the optical 800 dpi vs Boomslang optomechanical 2000 dpi debate once and for all with the release of a 1000 dpi gaming mouse remains to be seen until we actually get our hands on it."

bullshit that this is a Troll post, he's EXACTLY right.... THIS IS A AD PURE AND SIMPLE. Human's cant tell the difference between 300 dpi and 1000 dpi anyway, its just the industry TELLING you can that makes people think you can.

When it comes to gaming a higher DPI mouse simply will not make you a better player, gaming does.

This is the same bullshit the Audio industry uses half the time, there comes a point where our sense's are just NOT accute enough to tell the difference between one thing or the other.
