My biggest mistake was letting the store where I bought the components of my previous computer rebuild it because they could not agree that the mobo was dead.
What I got back was a warped case, a poorly installed H70 with one of the fans with a corner sawed off with a blunt saw, the sidefan of the case in a box without the screws, the mobo was not screwed in at all (just hanging from the screws), both graphicscards were dead(probably rough transport) and most important of all the problem I had was still not solved(no POST). Before this the mobo has been sent in for rma 3 times already of which the 3rd time they sent it back to ASUS and they got it back with the instruction to replace it which they didn't yet claimed they did ignoring my arguement it was the same serialnumber and even the remains of the padding of the H70 backplate still on it. After 7 months of having no working gaming rig and dealing with incredible incompetent 'experts' I threatend to sue them in a letter to the CEO I got a new mobo sent the next day. Installed it, problem fixed.... ...exactly what I said to them on day 1 of the problem!
This has thought me to never let any computer store 'expert' or anyone else who I can't verify as being more skilled than me even touch my computer.
Linus, please migrate to The Netherlands :P or even better, clone yourself for every country.

Yes, the shaking sound I hear is the mouse wheel moving back and forth I think
The heft at the back is due to the battery.  Take it out, plug in the mouse.
There is the sound of a gear clicking while using the mouse wheel, but I don't find it hollow necessarily.
The scroll wheel horizontal movement has more resistance to the left than the right.
The thumb buttons stay still, the ones on the LMB do have some play.  All provide solid feedback to me.
 
I feel this mouse is for smaller hands, it fits me amazingly, I find it extremely comfortable whereas the M60 did not.
