| 1360635 | 2013-11-29 04:52:00 | I think the thing with my Logitech is that it has lasted longer than anything I have had previously (MS, A5, Genius,et al.) and therefore has been exposed to many more applications of greasy fingers, cat fur, wind-blown dust 'n' dirt etc and since surgery it still performs as well as it did when it came out of the box. It has outlasted two computers, a scanner, several printers and at least one set of speakers so from my perspective it has been well worth the $200-odd that it cost me and has required much less maintenance than one might expect for a tool which gets more use on a daily basis than almost anything else I possess. The G700 is billed as a gaming mouse but because it is totally programmable, it can be a superb tool for any application where repeated keyboard work would otherwise be required. And if macros are needed for particular functions, that is possible too. However, like anything that ceases to perform as required, there is a strong temptation to sacrifice it and find an alternative. In my case, I am so glad that I didn't, especially when the cause of my grief was so basic and the solution so comparatively simple. As a pensioner, I am more inclined to attempt a repair on anything that breaks than I ever would have been when my income was ten times what it is now. |
