After years of trusty service, my beloved 1.1a has been infected with the infamous disconnect-reconnect virus, probably due to cable problems :((. I've been looking around for a new one but my local sellers here finally ran out of them and I really cba to order it from shady companies/have to wait for it for a week or two. So maybe it's time to change! First my CRT dies and now this, these are sad times. The question is, though, to what? So many threads of cod kiddies talking about DPI and thinking accel is good :C the googles are filled with them and reading all that shit makes me want to kill a homeless person.
I ask you ESR, what's a valid upgrade from the gr8stesstst mouse? I would like to have something with kinda the same shape and no bullshit need for weird drives/software. Is there even anything like this? Obviously Razer can go suck a dick with their cloudservice.

Edit: Have ordered a Zowie AM, thanks friends (and heartless)
