Re: Optical mouse vs. laser mouse hipgnosis, why do you say both are safe? and what is "intrabeam viewing"? anyways i took Ryan's suggestion. after taking a second look at the review that Ryan mentioned, i decided that the first mouse i had in mind wasn't right for me. i just got my logitech G5 today, which is a laser gaming mouse. it's working very well! hopefully it lasts a long time  |

Safe as in you don't have to worry that you will go blind by inadvertently looking at the bottom of the mouse. They are consumer products used by everyone from children to adults.
The G5 is a great mouse IMO. I also have one of those on one of my computers. |

It's not like it is a class IIIb LASER, the output is small and is somewhat divergent for a LASER. They are probably a class I LASER products based on the new rating system, you can read about LASER safety classes here:
»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_safety
There is nothing to worry about, if there was, believe you me I'd be making a BIG fuss about it, I was a LASER safety officer for a job.
Enjoy your mouse, glad you have it!!!
