Man, you're an old fellow, aren't you 😛
 
"When one mentions Level 10 and Thermaltake, the first thing that comes to mind is the uniquely designed Level 10 GT tower case."


actually when you say thermaltake and level 10, i think of the original level 10 case, and then the joke they came out with next called the level 10 gt.
 
Hey lots of G5 love here... I hope this thing has some good weight to it. It'd need to feel kinda hefty to match its design. I wouldn't mind seeing a mouse that sports leather since it breathes. When I think of nice cars I think of leather as much as I do alloys and design. I know leather's probably a bad idea for a mouse but at least it'd be different.
 
doesnt look as comfortable in hand as the RAT series. there in no thumb rest. i hope cyborg makes a new RAT that has about 3 more buttons and some more features. the MMO version has way too many buttons and the standard is a few short
 
BMW the ultimate driving machine - that is if you enjoy driving it to and from the shop!! I'll stick with my RAT 9 wireless - BMW should probably stick with cars, at least til they get one right!! :)
 
I don't know? Its like the Wheel. Why change it if it works? This just looks like a HOT mess. Looks cool but does it work?
 
It only looks like a rip off from the Rat mouse imo. As for the sweaty hands.. cmon if you need aeration holes to prevent it you got serious problems.. my hand never sweat while gaming, I need to do over 30-45min of stationary bike inside a gym to get sweaty hands..
 
At first glance it's impressive. Gotta give them some credit for creativity. But, once you start actually visualizing it on your desk while you do your daily work or gaming, it doens't seem so great. Accidents happen... Cords get pulled - mice go flying. This dinky thing doesn't look durable at all. My husbands Naga falls at least once a month.

Being able to adjust the size may seem like a great idea; however, at the same time it's not. It's not hard to find a "comfy" mouse. Mice with all these nooks and such definitely get dirty easy - so unless you don't take care of your equipment then this mouse style would easily become an issue.

Just about the only thing I can come to a positive conclusion about is the holes on the palm surface. Now mice aren't anywhere near as bad as when folks play with playstation or xbox controllers... and my palms don't always get sweaty when I'm casually playing, but when I get into a challenging situation i.e. heroic raid, they tend to need some air flow.
 
I agree, the RAT7 the current one I'm using is the best looking gaming mouse out there. Would be interested to see some competitions.
 
i like my g5, but the problem ive always had with mice is the left and right buttons being too far below my fingers. ive never tried a rat, but maybe with the adjustable back end i would be more comfortable. this level 10 looks pretty cool, i just wonder how many points of adjustment there will be.
 
[citation][nom]joytech22[/nom]Currently using an MX518 mouse, I wonder if this will be a good replacement..After all, the naming scheme would go with my Level 10 GT Snow Edition.[/citation]

Been using my mx518 now for 8 years. When I heard they were getting discontinued I bought another one that is still in the package as a backup. With a little luck I will be using a mx518 for the next 8-10 years.
