Just paid $120 on ebay for Logitech ifeel mouse. Maybe too much but its brand new and i really wanted to try it.
Planning to use it for Black&White as im currently playing it, and i read it has great support. Also playing in Stereo3D so its nice to have full immersion on all fronts.

Is it this one ? (I got curious, never heard of it, and at that price ! 😬🤔)

I can think of no rational reason for you to buy one of these things

Good old Dan did not seem quite as enthusiastic though, heh...

Haha yes thats the one. I read that review as well. Just seems like a cool little gadget, plus i love playing games with feedback supoprt (wheel or joytstick), having a mouse with one intrigued me. Plus i love Black & White and looks like it has full support so im excited to try it.

I bought an external Iomega CDRW drive and was totally surprised. And a bit disappointed. I opened it to clean and found something I was NOT expecting...

I've never seen an external drive have it's external guts internal. I could still use this IN something, but it'd have to cut the last few inches off the case (or at LEAST the back). I want to use it in a black Lian-Li. I have a few builds in black PC7 and PC60 that have been waiting for such an appropriate drive.

Main Loadout (daily drivers):
Intel TE430VX, Pentium Sy022 (133), Cirrus Logic 5440, SB16 CT1740
ECS K7S5A, A-XP1600+, MSI R9550
ASUS M2N-E, A64X2-4600+, PNY GTX670, SB X-Fi Elite Pro
MSI Z690, Intel 12900K, MSI RTX3090, SB AE-7

Sorry, I'm feeling a bit dense... what is wrong with it?

Now for some blitting from the back buffer.

It has a USB interface/power connector as part of the casing. I didn't take a picture next to a "regular" drive, but this thing is LONG.

I have yet to test the drive itself. It looks pretty clean compared so some of the stuff I've found. It'll just need those extra inches removed to make it usable in a PC
