Ruined?
Microsoft make the best mice and keyboards as it is.

Logitech make the best, MS are a close second though

if this turns out to be true , i hope logitech keep their crazy RMA service style

YOU'RE WRONG!

Saying that... I'm using a Logitech mouse and keyboard now, a logitech webcam and some Logitech z5500 5.1 speakers.

TBH, you're both half wrong and both half right.

Without question, Logitech make the best mice. Microsoft make the best keyboards.

It's really that simple.

Come on Mr. You can't use that argument with us

That was then, this is now.

It's like saying Atari are the best video console makers because - LOOK AT THE 2100!!!! WOW!!!

Sorry buddy, you're on your own with this one.

Only the explorer was decent, and it has such a low resolution now it's useless on such high res screens.

Would you care to tell us specifically how Microsoft would ruin an established brand name?

They would make it cheap and nasty...

IntelliMouse optical was the best of them all!
I'd still rather use that than my current mouse, but it died.

Yep, that's how I've always seen it. MS just have never been able to get their ratters right for gaming since the legend that was the Intelli Explorer's that employed ******* laser beams eminating from it's red bum

Logitech's MX series in themselves are legendary for ratters.

Logitech keyboards were of generally good quality but lacked the 'Quiet touch' technology that MS keyboards use and the keys feel noisy by comparison. Having said that I've still haven't managed to find a replacement for my wired Logitech Internet Navigator SE keyboard, or my MX518 ratter.

No chance - My lazer 1000 is the best mouse Ive ever had bar none

Shamikebab · 11 Jan 2008 at 07:23

From my experience Logitech and Microsoft mice and keyboard are pretty much on par in terms of build quality. Razer pips them both for mice imo.

Logitech have the worst RTM service and customer service around. Microsoft have a fantastic customer service, it would only improve it IMO.

Hah, I had that and took it back (and my mate did the same). Paid £60 for it the week it came out. What an utter disgrace it was as a mouse.
