Buying a Computer Mouse - Corded Vs Wireless

July 4, 2011 - PRLog -- Computer mice come in many shapes, sizes and colors. Some mice are built for large hands and others are designed for smaller hands. Many modern mice are endowed with multiple colors and stylish designs that make them visually appealing. A lot of optical mice light up like Christmas trees when attached to the computer. Other mice are conservative in looks but endowed with more powerful features. There are also the corded mice and the wireless mice.

A corded mouse is attached to your computer using a PS2 connector or via a free USB port. A wireless mouse is, as its name suggests, cordless. It comes with a small transmitter that is attached to your computer via a USB port. The transmitter determines both the cursor movements and the maximum distance a wireless mouse can be placed from the computer without losing its functionality.

Many consumers are drawn to the wireless computer mouse. Cord-free, a wireless mouse can be placed anywhere so long as it is within the range of its transmitter. Unlike corded mice, wireless mice can be moved about without being hampered or limited by wires and cables. A wireless mouse coupled with other wireless devices will make a computer table more neat and organized.

On the down side, wireless mice need batteries to run. If your wireless mouse sees heavy use, its batteries will drain faster and you will need to replace it constantly. Make sure to keep some spare batteries ready so you will not be left without a mouse.

Corded mice, on the other hand, enjoy a constant power supply. With corded mice, you have no batteries to maintain. They will stay on and functional as long as your computer is powered up and running.

Being a more recent technology, wireless mice are usually more expensive than corded mice but the difference is not great. Cost is not a very big factor to consider when choosing between a wireless mouse and a corded mouse.

If you can deal with the periodic replacement of batteries, a wireless mouse will work well for you and keep your table clutter-free. If you do not mind the cord and wiring, a corded mouse will work for you just fine. It will not die out on you and stay on so long as your computer is also on.
