Summary: Logitech mouse doesn't work well with flight simulator.


I called logitech about it (sometime around a year ago); they told
me their drivers don't work with flight simulator under DOS 3.0+,
but they do work under DOS 2.2.  I have tried this; they are right.

Needless to say, I keep a 2.2 boot floppy around for when I feel like
running flight simulator... not very often...  They MAY have fixed
the driver since then, though.

Outside of this, the Logitech mouse is the best I've used.

Oh -- I'm partial *against* optical mice.  "up" for an optical mouse
is relative to the pad; for me, "up" is "push my arm away" (depending
on how I'm sitting).  I've always had the feeling the computer should
adjust to me and not vice-versa.
