I agree completely. I would have to say however that I am brand loyal to Logitech, insofar as I give them the benefit of doubt when I weigh up on a potential hardware purchase, I assume it will work great and be high quality, but only because every single piece of Logitech hardware I've ever bought or been given I used to death and it still works to this day, even the mouse I got in 1993. I have another mouse later that had what I'd call a kung-fu grip on it for lack of a better explanation and a button on the side (don't recall the model), from about 1997 or 1998 or so. It was one of their first fancy pants ergonomic mice, and I used the hell out of that thing and eventually after several years the left button started to not work right simply from wear and tear over 16 hours a day of abuse for 4 years or so. Took it apart and found that the plastic on the button that contacts the microswitch gradually eroded as they would in any mouse really. I took some epoxy and put a blob on it and let it harden, then took a dremel to it to fine tune it a bit. That mouse still works now in 2015 on my server upstairs now about 13+ years since I did the repair job after it had a full life already.

I've never had any problems at all with any other Logitech gear, but I own probably about 15 or so of their mice, including 2 wireless ones, a wireless keyboard, the G600, a Quickcam webcam, a cordless rumblepad 2 game controller and a newer wired model, and my most recent purchase was the Logitech G27 racing wheel system which is friggen amazing. I probably have another half dozen or so Logitech peripherals I forgot about. Hard not to have some amount of brand loyalty with such a great track record so far. :) The only one qualm I have with Logitech is that I contacted them a long time ago to become a member of their developer program, to access hardware documentation and after several attempts they never returned my emails. Wasn't able to add cool features to the X11 mouse drivers that I had hoped to in order to make the best of their hardware, but that's a rather minor nitpick. :)
