This application is beyond cool. It has a high learning curve, and the website needs some lovin'. But, this bad boy has made it so much more easy (relatively speaking) to automate the generation of charts from raw data when doing market analyses, rather than using Excel over and over.

Oh dear. Backsliding into TA, are you?

Ha. Not in the traditional sense I swear. Everything I doing with this is math driven, as in I don't believe indicators are worth a flip. Totally cool seeing the math play out though.

I'm very peculiar about the keyboard and mouse I'm using. Especially for my daily driver.
I'll tolerate anyone's mouse when I have to use their system, and I'll adapt to different keyboards given enough time, but I'm particularly finicky about my mouse. I still think the best mouse I've ever used was Microsoft's old IntelliMouse (their very first laser one, without a ball). Sadly at one point Microsoft stopped making them, and I spent years replacing mice after that, trying to find the ideal one, because I knew the mouse I was using wasn't going to last forever.
Then years later Microsoft revived it as the "Classic IntelliMouse". Tried one - and despite the change in color (and some white LED they somehow felt was necessary to have), it felt and performed the same. So I bought 5. Given the last one I had been using was still functional, I figured 5 would outlast me.
That wasn't all that long ago.
This morning I've opened the box for the last of those 5. What happened to quality control, MS?
The 4 others all developed problems that became severe enough I just moved onto the next one in the pile. Either the right or left buttons became too sensitive (or I had to hammer them hard). Or the on-screen pointer started moving erratically, even though I wasn't even touching the mouse. This time it was the scrollwheel - move down one 'click', it moved up by 3 and then back down by 1. The faster I tried to scroll down, the faster it scrolled up. That sort of thing. Rather infuriating.
After having put up with this for months, this one feels like bliss again. But how long will it last? I checked on Amazon, and it's either discontinued (once again), or people want hundreds of dollars for them.
No, I don't have a question. I'm not even asking for alternatives. "What happened to quality control" was rhetorical. I know what happened. I'm just commiserating.

Like everything else, built to fail.
I think sales people invented the concept.

If the warranty worked off of the "first use" date rather than purchase date, I probably could've returned them all for replacements. That's how quickly they all failed.

I like 'em enough, I suppose if they all lasted at least 2-3 years (as these have), I'd be ready to buy another bunch. If the price was reasonable. Which it currently isn't.

My problem is I can't find a mouse that I like for under $100 and then I'm not sure I will like it.
I've had more luck with my current Logitech wired mouse than I have with wireless. This one has gone about a year without problem. Knock on wood!

Razers are nice.
They're overpriced chintzy crap, but they hold up longer than the other overpriced mice. Think I have had 3 and all lasted well past a year. It's possible someone here told me to get it (death adder).
The Logitech G3 is great, but one of the main clickers in it failed months into use.
I'm a heavy user so peripherals and the chair ... they just need to last 12 months. I'm not expecting miracles.
I feel like a quality stamp/lab could come back into vogue. UL is still around. Feel like we need a new one that doesn't represent whether your toaster may kill you but the odds it will still be toasting in a decade. Some sort of shared branding for some manufacturers to unite under that says, "we're only going to make high quality long lasting things".

I use a logitech trackball[^]. I have one that I purchased back in 98' and i still use it!! These were USB A wired and they worked great and cost $19.95 and then recently went to about $39.95. But now, it looks like they aren't available and th one I linked at Amazon is listed at $219.95!!!
Anyways, the buttons in that trackball have never failed. They work as good as when I first bought it in 98. Wow! Probably an accident.
More recently I purchased a trackball for on the go[^] (ala wireless).
I bought that one and the buttons failed in just a little over one year.
I needed another one but I was very afraid that I would just be buying one of these every year.
I researched it and took the old one apart and tried to fix it and all that nonsense.
I also looked up the buttons that they used and those (internal -- not the things you fingers touch) buttons are super cheap. I was going to order strong ones and replace, but it's just a pain.
Taking it apart and cleaning it did make it work again for about three months.
There is nothing worse than clicking a mouse button and having it do nothing so that you have to click it again _hard_ to make it work. So annoying.
I finally bought another one of the wireless logitech m575s and have been using this one for over 2 years now with now problem.
So, they definitely use really shoddy cheap parts and hope they last "long enough".
1 year would be really terrible but I figured maybe we were at that point with them before i got this one.
Also, I bought this one at the store and didn't order it (seems like they have newer product than warehoused online stuff).
