Logitech MX700

Logitech lied.

Called them before I bought it and was told that all of the 8 buttons were
available for other assignments of my choice.

So where is ALT in the choice list? Not there at all.
Getting the roller to work like the Intellimouse explorer seems impossible
as well as the right mouse button.

Amazing the amount of design effort and time spent in developing such a
sloopy looking piece of junk.

The guys from logitech think that they're pretty smart and want no
suggestions since they got it "all figured out". Bank on it... THEY DON'T.

Exceedingly un-ergonomic in design.
The scroller target is simply crude and ugly.
The image of the mouse with the buttons is illegible.
Truely an amateur effort.

It's going right back to the store tomorrow in haste.
Such a waste! And I went out of my way to get it. Yeeeugh!

Sam! I epoxied all my keys on my CAD station.

Thanks Chris, but it's going back to the store in the next several hours.

I cringe at looking at the target and It is so unergonomic as to be
apalling.

It's the classic case of design vs. styling.

Why anyone would conceive of and add buttons doing what the roller already
does is a classic case of UnderOverThink.

That baby is styled to hell and gone, but it is functionally crap. The boys
at Logitech are simply stylists... might make more money doing black hair,
for the Hair Wars Expo here in Detroit.

This is not to say that the Intellimouse Explorer has reached any sort of
real goal, but it is far more professionaly done.
