not to bad at all. i personally dont like cordless mice as problems can arise if the battery runs out just as you are lining up your next kill lol but thats just a personal preference. other than that it looks like a good alround computer

the mx1000 has a lithium ion battery in it and all u need to do is put it on the charger/base everynight and ur set

For that much you could get a 7800.

Very true but [1] with a 48-55 hour nonstop usage lifespan (yes tested) it's pretty decent and [2] 10second charge =4 minutes use = pray they dont have force respawn

but you can still play for good chunk
