If Lord Byron had been hip to this newfangled computer thing way back in his day, this might just have been the sort of peripheral he'd have been sporting.
Made from a real sheep's skull -- and real brass, though that's somehow less interesting -- this mouse has everything a megalomaniacal world conqueror needs to feel at home: fine ornamental detailing, the soothing texture of real bone, and the enticing mental image of crushing skulls every time you click. There's not much wiggle room here, you'll either love it or loathe it, but don't fret about the sheep, it died of natural causes.

I think it's awesome!
I would have that mouse and the laptop in a heartbeat. (Assuming I had an obscene amount of money and couldn't think of anything better to buy.)

I think it's awesome if you're a steampunk geek... it'd be an interesting companion to the steampunk laptop above. :)

I bet you'd get carpal tunnel from using that thing for long periods, but it sure does look cool.

I wouldn't want that anywhere near my computer, it looks horrific.
