I've had Logitech mice forever and one thing Ive never done is install their crappy software. Granted this "set point" series seems like they have improved their application department quite a bit. The last thing I want however, is another program or service that has to start up with my computer no matter how small its memory footprint may be.
My MX1000 was plug and go, the only thing I do with my mouse in regards to binding commands to buttons works fine as is in games. When I hit the thumb button mouse 4 gets bound to a command in half-life, when i hit the scroll wheel it gets bound as well. No software app required. I can adjust the speed of the pointer just fine in the mouse applet of the control panel in windows.
But my MX 1000 is many, many years old, and I'm worried that in this day in age setpoint has some key features I will miss out on? Such as the changing of the DPI on the fly? I'm also worried their software is needed for the best performance once the DPI is cranked up that high, I dont want my mouse to lag at all in any game because I dont have an app installed.
Thanks for any info
