Mouse♥





When you spend alot of money on something, you expect them to work.



When you pay 100 bucks (because you want to be environmentally friendly ♥!) for a rechargeable Microsoft Mouse; you expect to be able to recharge the mouse easily without needing to google for "how to recharge microsoft laser 7000 mouse". You also expect the mouse to be fully functional, especially when you are trying to deny last hits in DOTA, or when you are trying to run-the-eff-away.



You do not expect it to lag across your screen when you desperately want to highlight a size 7 "i" for your assignment; and by no means is it suppose to crash on you after just 2 hours of using it when you spent the last two nights charging it. Also, you expect to be able to scroll down a page, like you'd be able to using a cheap as mouse, only better cause you paid heaps of money for it eg your summer internship paycheck.


And, naturally when it doesn't work, you feel cheated; ripped-off. It's as if you paid good money for a ship cruise and find out you have to do the paddling. And tech service for Microsoft is located in India, and the only advice they offer you is to "just put in a battery". If I wanted to contribute to the piling amounts of battery, I would. I would have also purchased a cheaper mouse that is 60 dollars cheaper.
