Journal Nyder's Journal: today I got angry

I got a new mouse today. A logitech MX510. The red one (wish I was able to get a blue one, didn't even know they had that color till I check the website today). It's optical, 800 dpi, and captures 5.8 megapixels per second, and can track up to 15 G's of acceleration. I kid you not, look it up yourself: http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/US/EN,crid=3,contentid=8070,detail=2

It's pretty nice. I do own a logitech MX700 (2 actually, 'cept one of the base doesn't send the signal to the mouse) which are sweet also. I been using a MS Explorer optical wheel mouse, and the difference is like night and day, and I haven't even used it in a game yet.

I'm wondering though, is there a difference between using a USB mouse with the PS/2 adaptor on it? Should I plug it into a usb port instead of the keyboard/mouse PS/2 port? I will try it out each way myself, anyways, but I'd love to know for a tech standpoint what the max speed the PS/2 port is cable of delivering. And what ever else applies.

Guess that don't explain why I'm angry. ya, I guess I'm still angry. People suck. People don't understand what a small step it is for some of us to stop caring about what's right and wrong, and to, well, make you accountable for what you said. And this has nothing to do with anyone online. Online people don't usually make me angry. I sort of except lameness from people online, after all, it's not like anyone can do anything about it. You don't have to be accountable for your actions online. Which sort of sucks in it's own way.

Okay, back to the good stuff. Supposed to get some housing this coming week. I hope so. Because Doom 3 is out (don't have it yet, but I got a great mouse to play it with!), and I have a 3ghz P4 that I haven't gotten to play with yet, got at least a 2 512meg DDR400, possible a 3rd one (not sure about single/dual channel on intel), but I also have my AMD XP 2600+ (I have both the barton and the one before it) that I can put dual channel a gig of DDR333 (the mb will take 400, but the fsb probably won't overclock that far, at least the 1st one I had didn't, maybe the barton will...) on a real nice MB MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR. I have an ATI 9600 PRo 128meg card for playing, I have in the Nvidia corner, 5600, and 5200, nothing special and not nearly as good as the ATI. Next card I get is probably going to be one of the new ones, probably Nvidia because I like their software so much better. But I can't get into the hefty power requirement. Why they didn't add an external power source is beyond me. I would think that the cost would be worth it. but then I'm not in marketing, am I?

anyways, i'm going to go now. bye bye
