New cream of da crop Logitech M720 Mouse & fuckin' hilarious!
Posted: Thu Apr 08, 2021 8:20 am
So I get this mouse (this time I'm a tryin' be very concise & short/sweet to the point since my wife is telling me to STF 'cause I talk to much now).
Anyway, OK I give you executive summary:
1. Get all excited and order this LogiMouse w/matching keyboard since it do some things I want, like pop thru three simultaneous devices I have, which are Android Samsung Phone bluetooth, Win10 Laptop via logitech unifying USB, & maxiPad IOS (wife's toy) bluetooth.
2. BAM, installs perfectly, go across all three of these devices keyboard works better than expected, mouse admittedly is a little trick for the first 8 minutes I use it, but then I figure it out & it's even more phenomenal than the keyboard.
3, What you can do is like swipe up & down on the scroll wheel just as you do with your Phone and sure enough the thing starts scrolling into hyperspace like a horny rabbit on steroids until you go all the way to where you want & simply touch the top of the scroll wheel & it immediately stops. In your Windows setting, set the mouse to scroll not by screen but by line, 3 lines is what I found works best. I like my pointer yellow so I can see it but small so it doesn't get in the way of what else I'm trying to see, but that's just me.
4. Now, if you don't stop it with your fingers it keeps chuggin' along like some run away train & you have no idea why where or when this fucker will stop. You will end up lost on some screen you didn't even no existed, which I initially thought was hilarious, but I realized I had to figure out how to make it not do that & did. Nope, yet another thing that us IT people are fully aware of since it happens all the time, no mention in the quick start, or obvious documentation. There very well might be something said on page 87 or in the fine print but I don't have the time or patience to sift through all of that BS personally.
5. Anyway, so just a short while ago I somehow ended up surfing into this humungous online store's product reviews of this particular gem of a mouse that is the best ever and completely untouchable by any other of their competitors since Logitech is just that could at making keyboards & mice & has been for at least three decades now or so.
6. Amazingly, I find all of these morons cryin' & complaining in the negative review section and the MOST classic review entry one the prize of being #1 as THE most "helpful" review right at the very top. I started laughing so hard tears came out of my eyes when I was reading it. This dude that claimed to be some hardcore low level software developer with two decades of experience and claims to have used many mice for hours on end constantly banging the fuck out of his scrollwheel more so than any other person on the planet due to his expertise and mad skillz and specific characteristics of his coding applications, OMG, this is really funny, after years of managing some of them, I've found that some programmers have the mentality of an autistic baby in some regards, especially socially.
7. Well, this mouse scroll maestro could NOT figure out how this fucking simple Logitech mouse works just as a whole bunch of other retard reviewers posted the same wrong shite & he's goes on to say it is highly defective and goes all over the place, won't stop, goes up & down, all around, he is just so annoyed & upset, how could Logitech possibly do this, 800 people gave this fool a big thumbs up for posting such a "helpful" review, now stupid fuckin' Amazon Company has taken out the ability for me or anyone else for that matter to comment on any fuckin review post including his just like I've done hundreds of times before, so now all these other idiots that now can't get the message that this programmer tard is full of shit are actually believing this idiot's review & prolly returning their perfectly fine mouse that actually has this kickass feature, since this idiot told him it don't work right & that he's a renowned famous expert & always plays one on TV pertaining to this matter, so therefore everybody should return this best mouse ever, & get some shittier lame-ass mouse, like this fool is gonna do.
8. Thank you sir! & I look forward to further edumacating meself by reading even more of your reviews. Keep 'em comin' 'cause I will click your username linky just to read them all. Yeah right. LMAO; & Wakeup Amazon & at least put back the ability for people to comment on dumbass reviews exactly like this to warn other people not to believe them & do them a favor like I was going to if I could. AAAAAHHHHHH more changes for the worst, it's happening yet AGAIN. Send this message on to Jeff, unless he's too busy juggling pineapples while he reminisces about his Dad.
