It's categorized as a "gaming mouse" but I just use it for regular everyday stuff, and it works great for that. One extra feature I really appreciate is the scroll speed buttons right on the mouse, so when I need really fine control for something like detail work in Photoshop, it's just a quick click to change it and another to change back when done.
