Which mouse is better for Graphic Design? Razer orochi or logitech ms950?

Im looking for a new mouse, Im a fulltime Graphic Designer and want to know what the best mouse is out there?
I have narrowed it down to a Razer orochi or logitech ms950.
What do you use and what do you recommend?

In my opinion NB series in general is not designed for some turbo performance but to offer maximum on mobility and offer enough power for every day usage.
Im pretty sure both models have enough power for video usage and there is no big difference.
I also think you should choose netbook with more attractive design.
By the way: you can buy one of them, test it at home and, if you dont like it, send back. Before you buy one talk with your local dealer and be sure you can bring it back.
In my country I can bring it back in 14 days after purchasing it.

    Someday - and no one knows when that day will come - maybe all applications will be able to take advantage of the Retina display. But for the present, not many do: including all Adobe applications. There was a demo of Photoshop at the Apple World Wide Developers Conference of Photoshop running at native Retina resolutions but no one at Adobe in marketing is saying when, if or how the upgrade may be coming. It could be a week, it could be a year, it could be 2-3 years. No one knows. And only Apple app's (for the main part) are really utilizing the native Retina display.
    I've seen some demos of some applications (Apple's) that take advantage of the Retina display and they're awesome. But in actually working in the here-and-now I've heard quite a few gripes, particularly on the Photoshop forum, of menus looking pixelated and/or 'blurry' so I'm not quite ready to jump into the Retina display boat just now. Don't get me wrong - others have ad are very, very pleased with their selection. But until Retina displays are available on larger monitors, the maximum work area that you're going to be able to use is 15" - and that's simply not enough room for full-blown graphic design. Then there's the cost factor - for the $4,000+ you spend for a completely full-blown Retina kit, you can get a standard MacBook Pro, 16 GB of RAM, a fast SSD and even the Apple Thunderbolt Display for the same amount.
    The standard MacBook Pro isn't better than the Retina display: it's just different. And I think (and this is only my opinion - other graphic designers should feel free to jump in here) that it's the best computer that you can get for your specific purposes. And, towards that goal, I have to recommend a very good external monitor (there's nothing more annoying than having to use InDesign in a single-page mode rather than side-by-side because your monitor isn't big enough).
    Remember that this is only my opinion and that others might jump in with their own. But I was in the electronic pre-press business for more years than I care to admit and we always - always - worked with at least 19" monitors (and that's back when dinosaurs actually ruled the world).
    I hope that others will jump in with their comments. I'm going to follow this thread and see!
    Good luck,

  • Which mac for graphic designer on Ps, Ai, ID ?

    Hello,
    I'm looking for new mac, budget is +- ~1k pounds.
    I'm confuse which one is better for me, I have some opinions for these:
    MacBook Pro 13":
    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB
    250GB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400 rpm
    NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics
    Total: £999.00 incl. VAT
    Mac mini:
    2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB
    320GB Serial ATA Drive
    NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics
    Apple Magic Mouse
    Apple Wireless Keyboard
    Total: £964.01 incl. VAT
    iMac 21.5:
    3.06GHz Intel Core i3
    4GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB
    500GB Serial ATA Drive
    ATI Radeon HD 4670 256MB GDDR3 SDRAM
    Apple Magic Mouse
    Apple Wireless Keyboard
    Total: £999.00 incl. VAT

    You're going to actually do work on this? Forget the 13"
    While I have one and really like it, there's no way in the world I could be productive with it.
    I'd recommend you bump your budget up to a 24" iMac.

  • 24" iMac for Graphic Design studio workstation?

    Hi there, I've been using macs since the early 90s for graphic design and have always bought their "professional" models, ie towers. These days it seems the line between iMacs and towers is getting a bit blurred... iMacs are pretty darn powerful. So I need to add a workstation to the design studio and am considering just getting a 24" iMac instead of a tower + apple display. I use Adobe CS2 apps (photoshop, indesign, illustrator, etc.) Rarely, I deal with 500meg layered photoshop images, but I don't do any sound/video stuff.
    So my big question... is the iMac good enough for a full time graphic designer's workstation or should I stick with a tower? The difference is over a $grand.
    G5 tower Mac OS X (10.4.8)

    The 24" iMac is a perfect match for a graphic designer.
    On the plus side, the large screen is actually 4 inches larger than the smallest Cinema Display (20"), meaning great value. Secondly, you have the small form factor and the conveinience of an all-in-one unit, and the RAM is extremely easy to upgrade, with a ceiling of 3GB; plenty to run Photoshop or Aperture. The Nvidia graphics card is very potent as well; a must for people working with high-res images.
    On the downside, you still won't get the sheer performance that a tower such as the Mac Pro will offer. You also won't get the expandability. You can't upgrade the graphics card in the iMac. You also can't upgrade the hard drive easily, and USB and firewire card upgrades (necessary to keep up with todays latest connection methods for digital cameras) are out of the question.
    The 24" iMac is superb. It will give you the horsepower to run even a small graphics design business. But if you are serious about graphic design as a career, still go for a tower. You will be glad you did. I wouldn't be surprised if you found yourself selling the iMac and upgrading your system 3 or 4 years from now. However, if you expect to upgrade in that time anyway, the iMac is a better value.
    Good Luck with your decision. I know you will be happy no matter which machine you choose!

  • RMBP 13" vs MBP 15" for graphic design major?

    I'm going into an art school that requires a MacBook Pro, because my major is graphic design.
    I'm also interested in studying animation and bit of architecture/drafting.
    I'm told that a 15" MBP is recommended for graphic design students, because the larger screen will be more convenient when working.
    My problem is that 1. it is a bit pricey and 2. it's too heavy to carry around campus and elsewhere all day.
    I was also told that 13" rMBP would be better, because of the retina screen, portability and speed.
    The problem is, does the retina screen work well with photoshop and other applications, and how would my work look on the regular MBP and vice versa?
    And as for the optical drive, is the absence of it an issue?
    Thanks for your time everyone, if you have any suggestions then I would love to read them!

    I'm of the opinion if your in the 15" market and need a powerful  machine, a Mac is the best choice as you get OS X along with it and the  ability to do many things well, including running Windows and virtual  machines, thus having the best of everything and plenty of options.
    Anything  below the 15" MacBook Pro you can get for a fraction of the price for  performance on the "other" platform if all one is going to do is basic  junk.
    Despite  the "Pro" name, the 13" doesn't have the extra dedicated graphics  processor (nor four cores) like the 15" has. You'll need it to play most  all 3D games or rendering 3D fast. Some developers have tried to work  with the Intel HD graphics for 3D games and the results have been  terrible as it's so underpowered compared to the dedicated graphics.
    You'll need to check with MathLab for the minimal hardware specifications.
    8GB  of RAM isn't going to make much of a performance difference, just run  some things a bit faster, able to run more things at the same time.
    128GB  SSD is a joke, you'll burn that up in no time and be on external drives  a lot. Most people need 500-1TB of on board storage space now.
    Really  sorry you bought such a under performing machine for your needs,  perhaps if you asked here first you would have gotten a better assesment  and advice.
    You purchased based upon price and weight, which doesn't jive with the performance you require.
    The 13" is a cramped little screen with annoying reflections that will spend more time on your chest than on your lap or desk.

  • Mac vs PC for graphic design

    I've been working in a graphics department of my architecture firm for 7 years. We've been using PCs all of that time, but I can't help thinking my graphics team might be better off using Macs. Our workflow involves many other users in the office who aren't graphics staff. They all use AutoCAD, Sketchup, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, 3d Studio etc. (I'm happy with them having PCs). They all have Adobe CS3 installed on their PCs, and make modifications to images, layout, text, plans, sections and elevations. We all contribute to the finished product, usually a PDF, over a Windows server during the production period.
    I find myself wondering why most of the graphics studios that surround me in London's Noho use Macs. What are the real world benefits over PCs?
    I can think of these few, but my design world use of Macs has ground to a halt these past seven years:
    - Macs are design industry standard. I've always heard this mentioned, but why? What is it about them that have made them a design industry standard?
    - Switching files from Mac to PC is a non-issue, even over a server, they integrate well
    - Macs are more reliable. OS X uses less RAM freeing the machine up to drive software
    - Macs offer better colour accuracy, especially for print
    My IT team here are extremely reluctant to even let us try a Mac in our workflow. They say, and I quote: "...someone needs to demonstrate a rock-solid, obvious-to-everyone reason to start bringing them in. So give me something obvious. Give me something to offset the cost, etc, penalty of bringing Macs in."
    It's a battle. Can anyone out there offer any thoughts?
    Cheers. Ashley

    >2 relatively virus free at present (can't recall the last virus we had)
    I can recall. It was the mid to late 1990s and it ran all over the place because Mac users had their head buried in the sand and did not use anti-virus software.
    Being relatively free of viruses is no benefit. Statistics showing how many more viruses affect Windows are useless. It only takes one virus to knock you out. The majority of Mac users ignore virus protection while Windows users are more often aware and already have anti-virus software installed and auto-updating. What happens when a widespread virus finally hits unprotected Mac OSX users? Like most every other Windows user, I haven't cared about viruses on Windows in a decade since the AV software takes care of it for me.
    Viruses are not really the concern. Viruses are only programs that try to exploit the system. There is no need to send a virus to a Mac if you can exploit it more directly. Mac OS has had some serious security holes that allow remote attackers root access to the system with minimal effort, even if the Mac OS firewall is turned on.
    >AutoCAD... 3d Studio
    Running AutoCAD and 3D Studio is the Mac deal breaker. You must stick with Windows. You could run these apps on a Mac if you ran a virtual Windows OS on top of Mac OS, but then you're still running Windows (and with less available RAM since you are running two OSs at once). The other option is to have a dual boot system so that you could boot into Windows directly; but rebooting is a time waster.
    So the switch to Mac is just an expensive way to:
    buy new hardware
    waste time/money converting app licenses from Windows to Mac
    waste time/money troubleshooting quirks of integrating a new system within your company
    spend time retraining staff on multiple systems.
    The reason why you see other design shops using Mac is the same reason why you are using Windows: lock in. At one point, Mac was better (or assumed better) for graphics, just like SGI and Amiga computers were once assumed better for graphics and video. Likewise, Windows (or any system running on Intel) was assumed to be the best for 3D. If a company invests in a platform, they easily lock themselves into using that platform because it is so expensive to switch.
    Those that want the gooey goodness of the Mac GUI can tweak Windows to mimic it. There are freeware apps to add a dock, Exposé, Spaces, etc to Windows.
    >The "i" apps such as iPhoto, iDVD, Garage Band are slightly easier to install, obtain, and use than their counterparts in Windows.
    What counterparts?
    >It's a battle. Can anyone out there offer any thoughts?
    What is a battle? If you can't even think of nor prove a valid reason yourself, then there's no point in fighting for it.

  • Best monitor for graphic design?

    Hi -
    I am thinking of buying a mac mini to use for graphic design and I just wanted to get some opinions from any other designers using one. Whilst I'd love to be able to afford an iMac it's just out of my price range at the moment. I was thinking of buying the basic mini along with an Eizo Foris FS2333 23 inch monitor which I've read good things about. Does anyone else use the mini for InDesign, light Photoshop work and Illustrator? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi, no experience with them, but Eizo monitors seem to always be praised, if the Mini+Eizo is cheaper than the iMac, I'd go that way.

    I'm pretty sure battery capacity doesn't related with power performance of your system.. (in a notebook)
    well perhaps this is just another way of people to advertise their website.
    anyway. go for the biggest capacity, make sure it's genuine, and you can unplug ur battery if you dont  have one

    Why do you need a expensive MacBook Pro?
    Your attending high school and unless everyone else is rich also your likely going to be a target by the more poorer students for theft or damage to the machine.
    You could keep it home, but if you need it for class then your exposed again.
    Also at that age your not very careful yet, a MacBook Pro is a expensive and easily damaged machine.
    Unless your made of money and so are others at your school, I would recommned a low profile, just does the job cheap Windows PC.
    If it dies, gets lost, stolen or damaged because of your inexperince handling senstivie electronics then it's no big deal.
    You can buy a Mac later on when your sure you have a need for it, currently there isn't much advantage of owning a Mac compared to a PC, they do just about the same things now, one just looks prettier than the other.
    Since 95% of the world uses Windows PC's your going to have to install Windows on the Mac in order to keep your skills up there or be unemployed, so it's a extra headache and expense.
    good luck

  • What is the best wide format printer to use for graphic design?

    Hello all, I recently upgraded to a new iMac and am looking for the most suitable colour tabloid or super tabloid printer. I am willing to pay as much as $3000 and have read excellent reviews of the Phaser 7500, but the size and weight are too much for me in my home office. I would also consider inkjet models but want something crisp and clear for graphic design and have heard there are problems with compatibility with Snow Leopard and Lion. Am now considering the OKI C830 series. Any experience with this or recommendations? Many thanks!

    Had 2 Phaser 7700's - excellent print quality - large footprint, overpriced and consumeables are expensive
    Currently have a Konica Minolta Magicolor 7450 - print quality close to the Phasers, large footprint, good price, consumables much cheaper than the Phasers - Noisy, not great in a small office.
    No FHE with the OKI but it looks like a nice machine. Best to find a dealer and check out print quality and if you have small space watch out for the fans humming it can get overwhelming intrusive.

    i think to bye imac for graphic design use purpose. kindly guide me. Is iMac best for me ?

    Hello artistsagar,
    The word best is always subjective.   It is all a question of your needs, your working practice, your available space; I could go on.
    A Mac (probably a 27"one) may well be perfect.  Good size screen, easily understood basic functions and a huge number of recommended programs.   Just Google Mac graphic design to see what is available.

  • Which tool is better for ETL?

    I want to transfer data from RLDB to Essbase, there are many method and tools, I don't know which tool is better for my case. Now, what I am doing now is:
    1. Create views in Oracle
    2. Export view to falt file
    3. Import flat file to Essbase using rule file and MaxL import script.
    4.The data size: flat file rows 3-4 million, time used: 13 hours
    I want to use more powerful ETL tools, such as: Informatica PowerCenter, OBIEE, FDM, EIS, ..., I have basic knowledge for the above tools, but don't know which tool is better for my case? Please advise?

    First to streamline your existing process, you could get rid of step 2 and add a odbc connection to the server and Sql statement to the load rule to pull directly from your Oracle database. Of course with the number of rows you have, if you use the same extract multiple times, I would create a table to load into from the view and pull from that table.
    As for using an etl (Elt) tool, Informatica is pretty powerful and there is a version of it (although not supported in the future called DIM). I might go the ELT route with ODI(Oracle Data Integrator). In the future I might use OBIEE, but I don't think it fully ready for Essbase until the next version and I don't think it will rank on the same level as a full ETL tool for conversions.
    Edited by: GlennS_2 on Jan 2, 2010 9:58 AM
    As for EIS, I would not use it, but might use Essbase Studio. (It can use OBIEE as a source) again this is not an etl tool, it would just take youe existing views and load them.
