Sweet Deal on Razer Mouse

The Razer Diamondback gaming mouse is the current feature at Sellout.Woot! and it’s truly a sweet deal. You can snag a Razer in Chameleon or Salamander for $19.99 plus $5 shipping and handling. The Diamondback normally retails at $49.99. Grab yours in a hurry because chances are they won’t be available for long. Just leave a couple for me.

I’ve never used the Diamondback, but I did own a DeathAdder and have since upgraded to the Lachesis. Both are really great, and the Vista support has been fixed for the most part since its launch.
My wife bought me a Copperhead for christmas, it started spazzing out about 2 weeks ago. Double clicking on a single click… but not all the time, ramdomly. I got a Microsoft Sidewinder mouse now, much better quality build.
I own 2 Diamondbacks, a Copperhead, and a Deathadder. I have tried Logitech and Microsoft gaming mice, and the Razer mice are far superior to anything else I have personally used.
I switched from the Copperhead (laser) back to the newer Deathadder (optical 3G) simply because I feel that the optical engine tracks much better than the laser engine does. However, all of these mice are excellent tools for gamers.
At this price, you simply can’t afford NOT to buy one.
