But you cant really blame them for using their position in the market to make the software integrated. Part of me is aggravated that they have this advantage, because I would love to see this same integration with mice and keyboards from other company's. The major advantage Microsoft has over every other peripheral company is the possibility of close or seamless integration into windows. With this being a Microsoft product I was hoping that I would be able to skip the software installation and have it included with windows, but the software was simple and easy to use. They even covered the plug with a reminder to run the software first so it's almost impossible to miss that step. Installing the X5 mouse was as simple as running the included disc then plugging in the mouse o a USB port.

With their original sidewinder mouse it was always a love or hate reaction. It's no shock that with the gaming market growing that Microsoft followed suit with their Sidewinder Series.
