Haha,

Well of course it's not going to work if you use it like that. You're just using plain old Scotch tape! Obviously you need to order some audiophile quality adhesive to properly affix the pebbles to your cables. It normally costs $50,000 per foot, but if you can PM me I can sell you some at the low low price of only $35,000. Interested?

I only need an inch, would $50 be fine? LOL, nice thread, and nice postings

It isn't always categorized as snake oil, just taking blatantly taking advantage of the target demographic, but 'gaming' peripherals annoy the **** out of me.

I can see where you are coming from but my Razer Deathadder and Blackwidow are bargains, IMO. I loathe the shiny plastic on them but the Deathadder is a hell of a lot more comfortable (for me) than the **** Logitech G series. I also use it on max sensitivity, always (3500 dpi). The only two mice I'd choose over it are the Steelseries Ikari or the Mionix Naos 5k. The Blackwidow is probably the cheapest mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Blues. Outside of those things, I agree. Who the hell needs an aluminum mouse pad that is too large to use as a mouse pad but not large enough for full desk coverage? What about $100+ shiny plastic headsets with **** SQ? Tsk tsk.

Oh Logitech...you make such great mice, but why do I need a screen on my keyboard?

You can have my G13 when you pry it from my cold, dead, left hand.  Are u upset that I killed your toon w/ it?  J/K.    Same for my 5600 dpi laser mouse.
