By now, you’ve probably realized that here at Mint Media, we are brand-loyal.  Whatever Google does, we do.  Apple products are the coolest.  Amazon is king when it comes to online shopping.  We stick with the heavy-hitters, as they are the movers n’ shakers and the most fun to be around.

Note: I’m a PC guy when it comes to my main computer.  One brand that I’ve been loyal to for over a decade has been Hewlett-Packard (HP).  Reason being, they’ve never let me down.  I’ve purchased maybe 3-4 HP’s in the past decade personally and 10-15 for co-workers back at my old job where “in-house techie” was one of my many unspoken job titles.

Anyhow, if there is a HP stamp on it consider it a stamp of approval in my book.  Except for some reason they’re still putting out laptops with AMD processors.  Always buy a laptop with an Intel processor. (Why?  Because Intel is the dominating powerhouse when it comes to that industry and they provide the best product.)

When I saw this mouse that has a battery life of 9 month… and found out it was built by HP… it was instantly added to my Amazon wish list.  For the record, my current mouse is a Microsoft and I’m on battery #4 in 2011.
