Microsoft Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 Review

March 19th 2007 | Peripherals

Microsoft’s Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 is an ergonomic mouse that is in keeping with the design philosophy of Microsoft’s other Natural products, most notably the Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000. It is the company’s first ergonomic mouse and is actually something of an oddity in the industry as ergonomic aspirations are generally focused on the keyboard (at least by large companies)… Like with the Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000, Microsoft tried to improve comfort and reduce strain without reinventing the device.

.If your job requires you to spend multiple hours a day on the computer, moving to ergonomic equipment is always a good idea. The Microsoft Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 is a good way to do this without having to use a completely oddball contraption or one that costs a fortune (though at $80 it is not cheap). Even so the 6000 is something many users will have trouble adjusting to and I don’t think they will ever get back all of the performance of their previous mouse. That said, I would definitely say it is worth a shot, because the hand position is ergonomically sound so despite seeming strange eventually it will be comfortable, if not second nature.
