    My dad has a Old Ortech
    I have two keyboards but I only use one of them: microsoft multiMedia Keyboard while the other is a $200 gaming keyboard which I got for free in Christmas. It is a Logitech G19! A cousin's friend works at logitech and gets either a discount or free stuff. Still in the box but I peeked and used it and it was very good. Too bad my PC sucks. I installed the software onto my moms PC, and they keyboard was really epic. You can watch videos on the LCD Screen! LOL!

    I was considering getting a G19, probably will eventually but for now my G15 does the job. Wish I could say the same about my G7 mouse though.

    The only thing I don't like about the Logitech mouse is the Setpoint program.

    For some reason when ever I have it running, the center wheel click always makes windows lose focus on what ever window I have currently running. So when I go to left click on something in that window, it doesn't register, because windows switches focus to that window. So basically every time I click the middle wheel, I have to double click to get the mouse to work again.

    It has done it on two computers, with Windows XP SP1, SP2, and SP3. It has done it with basic windows for folders, for Firefox windows, Internet Explorer windows, Opera windows, etc. The only way to stop it from happening is to shut down the Setpoint program. Unfortunately that limits the ability of the button configuration and returns it to defaults. I have to sacrifice the user configuration of my Logitech devices just so I don't have to worry about the annoying "lose focus" bug.

    Well, I just started it up again and was fiddling around with the settings. If I have it set to AutoScroll, then it acts as I described, forcing me to double click after pressing it every time.
    But if I set it to Generic Button, it still scrolls and works as it should, but doesn't do the out of focus bug.

    I have a Cordless LX8 laser mouse, and an Elite Keyboard.
    Not exactly top of the line logitech equipment, but they served their purpose and were readily available and cheap.
