I have a Logitech mouse and keyboard. I don't use their software even though it's free. Other than the shitty switches, it's a good mouse. Actually, the wireless connection isn't great compared to the G7 (I thought I was getting frame stutters at first until I realized it went away if I plugged my mouse in). And the battery not being easily removable is dangerous, as mine was swelling when I opened it up to replace one of those shitty switches a few weeks ago.

But if they do try it, they'll probably be quickly dethroned since mice and keyboards aren't exactly difficult to make and even today the wear and tear is because they wanted to save a buck or two on switches (or were tricked into thinking crappy switches were good ones).
