GT-D: #razer_deathadder I have the Razer Diamondback, which is of course both left and right handed, and I find it plenty comfortable - but had this been on the market when I got my mouse I probably would have gone for a right handed version over the regular universal one. It took a while to get used to the neutral design and was uncomfortable at first. Aug 20, 08
