Hey all.

A long time ago I posted on QuakeLive forums and on Microsoft Forums a thread about the intellipoint drivers and the mouse polling rate.

My point was that setting the polling rate for a WMO or any other Microsoft mice was a pain in the ass while the Intellipoint driver is doing its job pretty good and the Microsoft mice are pretty popular among gamers.

Before you read further (if you intend to do so) , take into consideration that I have absolutely no clue about how polling rate, drivers and company business work, thus my thoughts on these matters might be full of stupidity.

I was wondering why the intellipoint drivers didn't offer such a service (modify the polling rate) when all gaming mouse brands like Razer or Steelseries do.

Is it so difficult to do ? Aren't microsoft aware that their mice have actually some success in the gaming community, which could grow stronger and stronger with time and then bring up some more money ?

I know the WMO is pretty popular here. So, ESR dudes, what can we do in order to contact Microsoft about this matter ? I'm really motivated to do whatever I can, even if it means making some calls, going into a Microsoft building in my country if there's one, etc.

Also, I'd like to know how many of you have or had a microsoft mouse and the model. It might be a good start to see how popular these mice are.
