Re: Logitech's laser MX1000 mouse review



I love my MX 1000 :)

Though i will be getting the G7 for my new gaming PC. The mx1000 will
be use don my HTPC.

I was a tiny bit worried about the lag. But i dont notice anything. It
shuts off after abour 4 seconds but when iam playing a game it genraly
is movied before it shutsoff.

I just finished call of Duty 2 and its great playing a FPS like that.
Quake 4 before that :)

Though i suspect the G7 or G5 Corded will be even better. Response
wise. I hope it has power saving as well. Atleast turnonable. I don't
mind the mosue swirching off. But from what i read i dont think so in
the reviews.

My review was better :p
