I can agree with you on that one. That mouse does look uncomfortable. Where would your thumb go. I've always been for Logitech and I have nothing but it. A Logitech g15 keyboard, Logitech MX518 mouse, Logitech Headphones, a Logitech Extreme 3D PRO Joystick. Logitech 7.1 Surround Sound Speaker System. Holy crap..i should so be sponsored by Logitech...I'm calling them right now!!!
