Logitech G5
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Logitech G5 is a corded laser mouse produced by Logitech targeted at the gamer market.
The G5 has a body almost identical to its 'sister', the G7, a wireless mouse. The G7 has a slot for its battery, and the G5 has a slot into which the weight caddy can be inserted. The G5 comes with sixteen small weights, eight being 4.5g and the remaining eight 1.7g. The user may adjust the number of weights or use them in different combinations to their own preference.

[edit] Features
The G5 uses a laser tracking engine as opposed to the LED or photodiode systems used by some other mice. It supports up to 5 resolution presets which can be set between 400 dpi and 2000 dpi, in 50 dpi increments. The mouse comes with software called SetPoint, in which the user can set these different resolutions, and adjust the mouse in several different ways. The G5 includes Teflon feet.
[edit] Revisions
In 2007, a newer revision of the G5 was made available which adds an additional side button, the lack of which was a main criticism of the model. It has a new patterned blue "grippy" upper surface, as opposed to the rust colored body of the original version. The middle mouse button was also revised, correcting issues going back to the MX series.[1]
