Why is the microsoft intellimouse (and to a lesser extent, the wheel mouse optical), such a meme in the gaming/tech community? What is so special about it?
You've been born 10 years too late to understand

It's just an all around good, sturdy, cheap mouse that was around when there weren't a lot of those kinds of options.

Literally nothing, /g/ is very autistic when it comes to hardware
there were lots of them
it was better than most specialized mice
now there's not so many of them left
it's also lesser than a lot of specialized mice
it's a relic

its not a /g/ meme though.
Quiet, perfect weight, perfect size and shape. I can't think of a single bad thing to say about it.
first optical mouse
first mouse with a scroll wheel
first mouse with side buttons
first mouse with a great sensor

it was good for the time, a surprising thing coming from Microsoft

idk
whenever I see one of those on ebay, it's like seeing a cute mousie at a pet store.
Long service life.

Microsoft makes good quality hardware more often than not
Are they any good to use with dual-monitors? I feel like the DPI is way too low.
