When did mice get so expensive....and awesome?

Yesterday, my mouse died! I had been using it for the past two years. And best part was that it was a tiny optical mouse with retractable cord....one of the twins my bro had gotten for free from a DuPont exhibition. It was cute and small and had light all in the right places. But I guess it lived wayyyy longer than I had expected it to!

So anyway, yesterday I decided to order a mouse online instead of going to Staples or the Shack since this way, I would get more variety and lower prices. I was interested only in a Logitech mouse and searched for it on their website, on Amazon, and on NewEgg. Last time I actually bought a mouse was in 2004, which I forgot back home, and is still living (I assume). That was a corded optical mouse, so I decided to get a laser cordless mouse this time around. I assumed that 40 bucks for such a mouse should be enough, and I would be able to get a pretty good one with that amount. WRONG!!

I looked at some mice on Amazon, and they're....hot!! I mean seriously, have you had a look at them? Those gaming mice? Take a look at this one on the right. My right hand could get aroused just looking at it...holding it...lying on top of it!! Man!! And the features.... a Nano receiver, it can work on any surface, including glass, and has a million other tiny little things I didn't know a mouse could do! The only drawback is its pricetag....$100...no thank you...not even for my favorite hand!

If you thought Logitech Performance MX was mean, check out Logitech MX Air!! It works on the desk or in air. In AIR!! AIR!! How awesome is that? It's tempting...AIR!!....but be prepared to pay $150! AIR!! Okay...still way to much...AIR!! Talk about Tourette's!!



So then I finally bought Logitech v400...on the cheaper side, but still a cordless laser mouse...oh well...
