Good Work Systems, founded in 2000, makes USB peripherals, and was the first to create a mouse with memory which debuted at E3 2003, the RTR-720, using its own programming language (PAL 2.0). It is also noted that this mouse was also the first optical mouse made for gaming. Here are some more interesting facts about this mouse, which also appear in more recent products as well: It has 32KB of memory and is capable of supporting 30 complete mouse profiles. It uses steel ball bearing glides, has no moving breakable parts, upgradeable firmware and replaceable buttons, bi-color pattern and brightness programmable button backlighting. It also supports its own processor, onboard memory, and OS, all heavy wear areas (grip, contact surface, and buttons) are made of sturdy rubber, plus it can be customized by the customer through colors and finishes from their website

Some other products that have been made, or are being made currently, by Good Work Systems are the RotoGraf, which is a rotary grip mouse that is useful for artists, animators and other professionals – they work on all computer formats (all of the mice do). They also have the USB dual foot pedal, or Fragpedal, with memory capabilities just like the mouse line. It can be run in conjunction with the R2 mouse, has 32KB memory and also 30 profiles. They can, hands down, say that this is a first ever. And that it is part of a larger line of peripherals designed for gamers that are still in the works.
For more information on this mouse, support, and how this mouse is best used for gaming can be found on their website – along with other products that are in the works! Please check them out, very cool stuff. I know I made an error, but that does not mean I view their products any lesser in quality or functionality. Plus, they would like to note that they are an all-American company from designers to builders, so support US businesses and go check it out!
