Thank you Thomas. I want to keep the retro experience genuine, and am out there looking for the best of these for that reason. I know it's not the best mouse by any means, but it is iconic in shape and we've spent a lot of time with that mouse, didn't we?
So of the A2000/A500 you recommend the rotating one? Are we just talking micro switches? Those can be replaced with better in worse case, right?
