The idea behind its repeated use is to have the side of your hand rest on the desk, as opposed to keeping the weight on the mouse itself.

Since righties get the right of way (no pun intended), Microsoft tried to sculpt contours that could handle just about any hand that touches it. I wouldn't be able to use the Natural Mouse because there is no version for left-handers, at least for the time being. The big indent for the thumb is pretty self-explanatory, which is fine, but what if I was a lefty? Tough luck. Except that I couldn't help but feel someone from the software giant would suddenly show up and slap my hand away if I wasn't doing it right.īut to be honest, the curvy and tall design of the Natural Mouse really doesn't give you too many options on placement. It was a little comical, but necessary given the message Microsoft is trying to get across. The Natural Mouse comes with the same setup and instructions as any other Microsoft wireless mouse, with the notable addition of an artist's rendition on how the mouse should and shouldn't be held. Does it come as advertised? Well, yes and no, but this is also the sort of item that you either come to love or hate. With that design, Microsoft intended for users to hold this mouse in a different way in order to maximize comfort. The Natural Mouse easily stood out with its unusual design. I first saw Microsoft's Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 at the company's headquarters in Redmond, WA when they invited media to attend a showcase of their new line of computer peripherals. The Verdict: Love it or hate it, it should give your wrist a rest.The Bad: Two side buttons can be difficult to use holding it from the side isn't always the best option no versions for left-handers yet.The Good: Elevated form factor works well with or without a wrist rest rounded contours and rubberized grips are nice to the touch instant Viewer tool is great for keeping track of many open documents functionality with Macs is stellar.
