Honestly, I've gotten where I just hook up my G5 for gaming and leave my old MX500 at work for exactly this reason. I've never mapped the middle click for games, but given most browsers use it for opening/closing tabs, etc, it's more or less essential to me for anything other than games.

They match up the latest products from Razer and SteelSeries along with some five year old Logitech products and come to the conclusion that... it doesn't seem to matter that much.

Opera's Slashdot Easter Egg and Speed Dial 157

Thelomen writes "Opera Browser contains an Easter egg that is not widely known, recently reported over at OperaWatch.com: type /. in the address bar and you are taken directly to slashdot.org. Other recent news from Opera is their new Speed Dial feature, present in the most recent build from Desktop Team. At first glance Speed Dial just looks like 9 bookmarks you can open with CTRL+1 to CTRL+9. However, the pages on the Speed Dial are shown in thumbnail and are automatically pre-fetched in background — a useful thing if you have some heavy pages among your top bookmarks."
