I think may be referring to products such as: http://www.razerzone.com/gaming-mice/razer-naga-epic

"System Requirements PC or Mac with USB port Windows® 8/ Windows® 7 / Windows Vista® / Windows® XP (32-bit)/ Mac OS X (v10.6-10.8)"

I enjoy the ability to fully utilize my right hand and minimize the amount of movement I do to and from the mouse, both for work and general computing.

Depending upon what you want from your mouse ( in the case of the naga, do you want custom binding of macros to buttons beyond a numeric keypad? => if so you need the driver support :( )

A good alternative that I use on my linux machines is: http://www.razerzone.com/gaming-mice/razer-lachesis/

Which has its own memory to retain macros(can be a pain to load, I have typically used windows VMs w/ drivers :/)

I have the Naga, and under linux you can program the buttons of it and any other mouse using imwheel. Then your macros are in a file on a disk, not on NVRAM on a mouse.
good to know, thanks!
