Customer Rating:
Summary: great mouse cheaper than G-5
Comment: Mouse works like a champ I use it to play unreal 2004 and unreal 3
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Solid all-around mouse
Comment: This mouse not only does everything Logitech says it will and does it well, it's a good mouse when you're not gaming as well. The on-the-fly sensitivity switch is handy for applications like Photoshop, and the forward and back side buttons make web surfing a lot easier.
I rate 4 stars instead of 5 because of two complaints:
1) The recessed chamber where the diode is housed invariably gets dusty even though the mouse is laying flat and is used on a clean surface (don't ask me how), requiring a compressed air blast every couple of days to get it back up to speed. But this takes two seconds.
2) The last MX518 I had died when the cord connection at the top of the mouse got a little loose and the mouse would cut out, to the point where it was frustrating. It would have been nice to not replace the product every several years, but the mouse had seen a couple years of extensive gaming, so I'm willing to forgive it for that.

Summary: Still the best gaming mouse out there..
Comment: My previous mouse was a logitech bluetooth mouse, which I'd been using for several years. It finally started acting up and the MX518 is identical except for the cord. Got to love the extra thumb buttons!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Something wrong with this mouse
Comment: this mouth is great when it works.
I got the first mouse, and after a year or so some buttons stopped to work.
I got the second mouse, and after few month the right click button stopped working and became absolutly worthless, because you cannot assign right click to any other button.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great for gaming, but not JUST a gaming mouse. Works with Vista 64-bit!
Comment: I upgraded to this mouse a few months ago because I wanted a higher DPI mouse for both games, and normal use. I purchased this one after reading reviews here, and on a few other web pages. The reviews were right: this mouse is excellent.
Pros:
Fast, accurate and precise movement
The three settings for speed that can be changed on the fly. This feature is very useful when you need fast-twitch action one second, and more precision the next.
Smooth, almost frictionless. Glides over my mouse pad.
Easy software set up, although Vista doesn't need any drivers to run it. (I'm on Vista 64-bit, and this mouse works perfectly).
Cons:
I'm not a fan of the "claw and tooth mark" finish. Just a preference, and doesn't detract from its performance.
If you want a reasonably priced, fast, accurate and precise mouse for games and other applications, look to further.
