    Anyone have one that they can recommend? Full size.

    Preferably from Amazon or a bricks & Mortar.

    I have this and I like it, it has good software to configure it too. It's nice and portable, as it can be folded.

    Looking for something fancy or just something that does the job?

    I grabbed a dirt cheap (€19.95) wireless Logitech mouse and keyboard from Lidl (or was it Aldi? dunno) about two years ago, I never used the keyboard (don't like the low resistance) but the mouse can take some serious abuse, tellin' ya. ;)

    I'm not exactly a fan of Logitech, or rather the software they usually want you to install with their products, but you don't need any drivers for a 2-button & wheel mouse and the hardware is rocksolid, I swear to God! :D

    Seems like a very big curve on that, was it hard to get use to?

    What's the Model No?

    Anything that does the job will do me fine. Only requirements are 2 buttons with a wheel that can scrool left and right aswell. That's a nice feature, it's probably out years but like I'd said, I've been using same one for ages. I was reading a few reviews for the last hour or so but it wasn't untill I looked at a few youtube vids that I noticed just how small some/alot of them are.



    I don't have bear hands or anything but I'd have to bend my fingers alot to use that.

    Praise the Lord for small favours (and a magnifying glass). ;)

    The keyboard is shyte, but the mouse rocks. I went through 2 Dell mice a year, easily, their micro switches aren't cut out for my favourite hack 'n' slash RPG, but this one went through three Diablo 2 ladder seasons and is still in good shape. ;)

    What age are you Torqay??

    Also, have to ask, why do you upload pics to imgur before inserting here?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,620 ✭✭✭_AVALANCHE_


    I should have asked that in my off topic thread that no one is using.:(

    It did take a while to get used to it, I think. It's not as curved as it looks though. There's a button on the side too, which can be configured to do whatever you want it to, but it's very awkwardly placed and I just ignore it now.

    a wheel that can scrool left and right aswell
    It can't do that though. :P

    Way too old for this &*^&$% :D

    Old habits die hard, I suppose. Grabbing a screenie and bang it into Tiny Uploader happens somewhat like a reflex here. ;)

    Hotlinking images from other places is just bad form.

    Funny though when it's a porn pic that get's linked instead. Seen that a few times used by sites to stop people using their bandwidth. :D

    I have Logitech v270 mouse for a last 3-4 years - it's bluetooth so no need for a separate dongle and I can easily recommend it. I'll buy another one if this one dies.
