I've been using this without any apparent problems on my iBook, plugged
directly into the USB port. (I share a printer with my iMac, so when I want
to print I just carry the iBook over and unplug the mouse, plug in the
printer.) I formerly (and sometimes still) used the Intellimouse on the
iMac. There, I had horrendous problems with the mouse just becoming
unresponsive. Finally, I plugged it into one of the two USB ports directly,
and put my printer, keyboard, and Zip drive onto my hub, and everything
worked flawlessly. So, I'd suggest trying the mouse plugged directly into
the USB port, if you haven't already done so. Otherwise, I don't know why
you would be having problems with it. I LOVE the Intellimouse: the scroll
wheel, the side buttons that do page up/page down in many apps, or Back and
Forward in my browser; the right mouse button to do contextual menus with a
single click...its great!

Anyhow, I can report that in and of itself, the Imouse does not conflict
with Office 2001.
