>not having a CPU in your mouse
do not most mice with programmable keys have a processor?
Why does it even need one?

Store short macros/shortcuts and have it persist across computers/operating systems
I can use my bootleg chinese mouse for linux with shortcuts and all despite the software being for windows xp

My operating system is just named Linux.
Can I run Linux on it?

Linux is my favourite operating system

They used to just be microprocessors.
ARM SoC's have come so far that you can use a fully featured SoC in place of a microcontroller.

>arm socks
huh
As someone who knows a little about AVR's, how the hell is anything with an OS supposed to be faster than a micro controller running raw?
>>53357183
That actualy made me think about something - is there something like ahk for linux?
>>53357156
steelseries have CPUs in their mices starting from 2011 you faggot
not to mention roccat mices too

Tons of stuff for X11 at least.

Hey fellow avr bro
Its an ARM microcontroller in that mouse (or so they say), most probably to send more precise data to the PC and to talk to the driver on PC via USB.
It does not have an OS on it, its just an ARM CPU with a firmware on it, exactly like we program our avrs, they dont have an OS but do whatever they're programmed to do.
Besides it probably has a clock frequency of upto maybe 50MHz, and several tens of MIPS of processing power, so in terms of raw horsepower, they beat our 8 bit babies, even if they did have a little RTOS on them (which they absolutely don't), they'd still be faster

I'm sensing some sarcasm, so I'll just post this...

>Linux (pronounced Listeni/ˈlJnəks/ LIN-əks[9][10] or, less frequently, /ˈlaJnəks/ LYN-əks[10][11]) is a Unix-like and mostly POSIX-compliant[12] computer operating system (OS) assembled under the model of free and open-source software development and distribution. The defining component of Linux is the Linux kernel,[13] an operating system kernel first released on 5 October 1991 by Linus Torvalds.
I just ordered a Mionix Castor.
