Razer takes aim at Mac Gamers with DeathAdder

deathadder-tn-1.jpgAs much as I love Mac gaming, I was surprised to see Razer release a mouse with Mac Gamers in mind. A company that actually acknowledges our existence, what a concept!

I’ve used Razer mice in the past and found them to perform exceptionally well. I’m looking forward to taking the DeathAdder for a spin, hopefully they’ve kept that hair trigger feature for their mouse buttons.

Believe it or not, that hair trigger does make a difference when making those long distance sniping shots with only pixels of your enemy to aim at.

I was hoping the DeathAdder would have a flexible weight system like Logitech’s G9 mouse, I’ve always found Razer mice a tad too light for my comfort.
