Logitech’s new CEO wants your next mouse to last forever

Lol, logitech do not make products that last forever. 
All mices I have have at least one problem. 
Side button on my MX, scroll skips on my superlight, double clicks on my g305 and I am at my second trackball.

I guess it’s fine. If I can fix my mouse if a component fails instead of just trashing the thing I’d be okay with that.
I’m biased, but if they’re going to be shrinking their focus I expect better services for Linux.

It seems like we might be getting a modular mice, like the framework laptop. Quite skeptical about how the mouse would feel in hand while use when you know that the pieces and parts of the mouse can be detached and separate the mouse apart, like would it feel so natural like a well built mouse that holds all its components as a single unit with more or less 2-3 components?

forever is theory, what are you using to make the next mouse, transforminum, from the transformers movie?.
because, there are so many factors that would let you buy a different mouse, “its dirty”, “you need a mouse because you need a mouse”, “you want a different color”, and more. But its hard for us to stay in line with the theory of Forever, or give it a big number like 10 years…
I like the fact that you are going for a lesser carbon footprint tho :)

2031, is the mouse required? That time AI, VR and Neuralink will take over traditional computers.
