Small victories

Recently my Logitech mouse developed a problem - the dreaded "phantom double clicks." You press the left button once and get two clicks. It's the most infuriating thing when you're trying to do, well, anything on a computer. It's a common problem with Logitech mice. I found a solution touted online in which you drain the capacitors by taking the batteries out and clicking all the buttons for a minute. It worked, for about a day. My last Logitech mouse had the same problem so I replaced it thinking it was a dud. The replacement developed the problem after about 4 months. 
 
So I called Logitech. The support guy said they'd mail me a new one if I emailed them a scan of my receipt. I told him to email me the details of how to go about emailing it. So he sent me an email which didn't give this info. I emailed them back and requested the info, and received an email with a link which I filled out along with the attached image of the receipt. Some other support dude sent me another email saying they'd received my request but could I send the receipt image. Whatever - I sent it again. 
 
Anyway the upshot is that these doofuses appear to have created two separate support tickets for this, because yesterday I received in the mail TWO count 'em TWO shiny new Logitech mices 
 
This is great. Going by my experience with Logitech, I have calculated that I stand to experience as many as EIGHT months of trouble free mouse usage from these two devices. Life is good. 

Never had issues with mine either. This one I bought w/ my laptop in 2010 - not a glitch so far. None's battery powered though - I've had one for a while and didn't like it at all.
 
We should thank Sharke for buying all the bad ones. :P

I'm hard on mice. It's the gaming, exacerbated by the heavy hand of a piano player.
 
I used Logitech products for decades, mostly fancy cordless models, but switched to a corded Microsoft mouse a couple years ago. I discovered the cordless mouse would sometimes pick the same frequency as my cordless phone, such that the mouse would often get jerky or stop working altogether whenever I was on the phone. So no more RF cordless mice.
 
I also realized that I was always going to eventually destroy the microswitches in any mouse I bought, so it only made sense to buy the cheapest name brand I could find. The standard corded Microsoft mouse is like 12 dollars at my local big-box store, an acceptable recurring expense.

Sounds like Logitech operates like a government agency.When my brother Mike enrolled in the VA health care system, he underwent a physical and since he's overweight, they prescribed a scale along with his meds.He went down to their pharmacy and they gave him the scale and the drugs. A few days later another scale arrived via FedEx.Works well, digital and can be switched between standard, metric and, I think, stones.Thank you VA!

Does it measure down to 10ths of a gram? You could use the scale to weigh the drugs.
