  1. Before I make my final decision, I'm wondering if anybody else has criticism or suggestions?
  2. Thank you for sharing! It eases my concerns about potential poor build quality.
  3. I've actually looked into this mouse based on the suggestion of another user. It looks really quite nice, but I've read some troubling reviews about the mouse breaking after less than a year. Can you speak to the reliability of this mouse?
  4. I've been checking out the Qpad 5k and 8k. Does anybody know the difference between them, or have experience with these mice?
  5. Hi Nick, thanks for the recommendation. I checked it out on the website, and noticed that there weren't any dimensions for this specific mouse. You wouldn't happen to have access to those, would you?
  6. This looks pretty awesome, I will add it to my list of considerations. Thanks for the suggestion!
  7. I love my MS-3 and I'm simply looking for a comparable replacement. It's probably right around 60% of my hand size, so that would make sense as to why I greatly appreciate the feel. I would just buy another Func if they were still around. It's really unfortunate too because the company that acquired them now just makes more boring and run of the mill "RGB gamer" stuff. I guess there just isn't a big enough market for peripherals that aren't just more of the same.
  8. The Nyth is a couple cm smaller in width, probably due to the lack of a secondary finger rest. It might actually be a decent replacement if it weren't for the "MMO" side buttons.
  9. Thank you for the suggestion, but unfortunately it's a bit on the small side.
  10. Edit: I ended up going with the DM Comfy 2, frankly because it was the least expensive and seemed equivalent to the other viable options. I've been using it for a week and am quite pleased. Although it is considerably smaller in width than the Func, I've been able to quickly get used to it. The only real flaw from my perspective is that the L/R click sound is on the noisy side. Edit (07/17/2020): The scroll wheel on my DM Comfy 2 stopped working after 13 months (12 month warranty, go figure) so I picked up a 3Dconnexion CadMouse on sale for $79. After having the CadMouse for a couple days, I returned it. The software didn't work properly on my Win 10 machine which renders the mouse useless. I picked up a Q-Pad 5k for $20 on Amazon, so far so good. Edit 2 (02/18/2021): The left click on my Q-Pad 5K started double clicking after less than 7 months. Maybe I just have bad luck with mice. I wish there were more mice with finger rests. RIP Func. Hey all, I realize that this has been asked about in the past, but with new options arriving on the market every day, I'd like a 2019 reassessment. I'm looking for a palm grip mouse to replace my Func MS-3 because it has began acting up. My hand is 20cm from wrist to tip of middle finger, and I really like having the ring and pinky finger rest. I'm aware of options such as the DM Comfy 2 and the Naos 7000 which have a similar style, but unfortunately are considerably smaller than the Func. I've attached an image from a Google image search for reference. Thanks in advance for your response, and I'm happy to answer any questions if need be.
  11. You can build a closed faced shelf that would sit across the back of your desk to run wires behind. It would clean up things a great deal.
  12. Hahaha yup... Look at the title of this thread. You should go outside and play or something.
  13. It's currently $270 at MircoCenter and $309 on Amazon/NewEgg.
  14. Those are some of the worst looking icons I've seen 'released' with a professional product in a long time.
  15. In honor of their 1,000,000th sale, their offering a 10% discount on the M-Series line of chairs. I just picked one up. 10% off is just about the best discount that you can find on one of their chairs. If you were in the market, this deal might be for you.

  16. Even though it was only an unboxing, I would have appreciated a more technical analysis of the product. You've got a good personality and seem comfortable on camera. Thanks for the video! You should ask a mod to move this to reviews instead of off topic (http://linustechtips.com/main/forum/25-member-reviews/).
  17. I've owned several Seagate drives, including two 3TB and have never had one fail on me before I retired it. Seagate is my go-to HDD manufacture but that doesn't mean WD or Hitachi doesn't make equally excellent drives.
  18. Two of my four 840 EVO's had to be RMA'd. That's a headache in itself, but now you have to run the restore tool on them so they don't run slow in the future. Worst SSD's ever..
  19. 90% Isopropyl alcohol and a coffee filter works wonders.
