Title: Good News - Perhaps
Post by: Ratsy on September 27, 2016, 10:32:41 PM
Logitech has spent $13M to acquire Saitek.

Some of you might have tried to buy an X55 Rhino in the last year or so and probably couldn't find one for sale. 

Logitech certainly understands the current peripheral business.  I hope they can drag Saitek into a new era of quality products.

I have been pretty happy with my Rhino until today when the dreaded phantom keypress showed up.  I am using the recommended powered USB hub but I haven't had the chance to move it's lead to various USB ports on my rig (recommended).  While digging around for a quick fix I ran across this blog item.

Here's hoping for a brighter future for Saitek.
