My dear friend if I was Logitech I'ld sue the pants off you (if I could). What you are suggesting if not outright illegal is certainly outright dishonest. It is nice people like you that contribute to mice costing $100 rather than $80, or less! If you generate extra expences for the companies involved, guess who ends up paying for them. I don't enjoy paying extra for you or anyone else that follows your advice. ___ ___ /\ | | | GEnie: P.VONDJIDIS1 /__\ | |-- | Usenet: alec_vondjidis@outbound.wimsey.bc.ca / \ |___ |___ |___
