mouse feet wearing out?
« on: June 22, 2009, 01:27:30 AM »
I've had this Logtech G7 mouse for ages, normally I kill the buttons long before the surfaces run out on the bottom of it.

Just for giggles, I decided to go look for replacements and found this site.

I don't know of any other companies that carry this kind of thing.

You can get a whole mouse for not much more.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

There are a few companies that make 'mouse skates'.  Got some for free when I ordered my new Razor after my Habu died.

Is $6 for the mouse feet vs the $70 for the mouse not much different?

I just buy cheapo MS optical mice.  They are nowhere near $70.
