I presume you mean the rat 5, I don't know another. In which case save you money and get the 3, it does the same job and with a screwdriver you can adjust it all the same.

My source: me, I have the 3 and it's very nice, but can glitch once in a blue moon on a shiny surface, but nothing spectacular, it's definitely worth the money IMO :)

I own two RAT 5s. They're amazing. Although I still haven't figured out what the thumb scrolly thing is used for.

You can use it for side scrolling on web pages, only available on macs I think. It's not present on the 3

hmmmm either a troll, an idiot or a laptop user. . .

Either way it's a computer mouse, which is what this whole thread is currently revolving around

I've had my Razer Copperhead since 2004ish and it's still going strong. I would recommend it, but unfortunately it is out of production. The Razer Lachesis is their new flagship mouse, and it has a lot of good reviews.

Because, they want it to look cool. But, imo I think it looks bad. Also, I heard that the RAT series of mice are uncomfortable, and that its really a waste of money. Try the Logitech G500. I have one, and I love it. Especially the hyper scolling feature, and the overall look and feel.

I'm a bit late, but I also have a R.A.T 3 and it's the best mouse I have ever had. It fits in my hand perfectly, it is unbelievably accurate, I love the programmable capabilities etc.etc.
