Testing The Everglide Gaming Pad
It's now time to assess the performance of the Everglide Gaming Pad, and to assist me in this review, I have managed to secure the the assistance of both an optical mouse as well as a mechano-optical (ball) mouse.
However, before I continue, I would like stress that a mouse pad should never be merely subjected to game-based testing only to determine its performance. Rather, it should be subjected to various types of applications that might benefit from the use of a precision mouse pad.
