I really prefer the logitech mice, and I'd rather we didn't buy icky
stuff. Microcenter does not have logitech mice in stock much anymore
(last two times I was there). I'd prefer we got like 30 of the
logitech mice and asked for rush rush rush delivery. If people don't
want to stomach whatever additional cost that is, then we can head
down to microcenter.
Can the Powers That Make Money Decisions let me know asap whether we
can do a rush order? If we can't then I'll go to microcenter and find
suitable mice, though I doubt they will be as nice as the logitech
ones.
