I have a blocky logitech keyboard that looks like it was built in the Soviet Union and was priced accordingly. It is more or less invincible. My headset and mouse follow a similar design philosophy.
Wireless mice are kind of pointless.

Quite common, but with a cartel carefully controlling the supply to keep prices inflated?

Do they have nixie tubes on them? That would be epic.

Only mouse I'll use these days is a Logitech G5. If they die I just go on ebay to find more. Corded all the way - I always hear "my mouse's batteries died" when a Blackhawk keels over and goes down full of troops.

Yeah there are over 20 actively used electric cords plugged into power boards in this room, with no smoke alarm. But possibly a mouse.

I use wireless mice because I tend to snag mouse cables on my feet when pulling my keyboard tray out, thus inadvertantly destroying more than a few mice in my day. Mainly because the damned things stick out further than they should.

The mice cables or the feet?
After rolling over mumble headset cables a grand total of mumble times, I have learned and have tied off a coil in the middle of this headset cable.

The first laptop my family got had one of those, and I hated the hell out of it. That laptop was awesome, imo, though I think I was like 10 and only ever used it to play digdug

Keyboard workie again. Finally pulled it apart (all the way apart) and found the problem. Apparently, someone has been eating food near said keyboard and whole bunch of crumbs had decided to congregate between the plastic layers of the actual electric contacts for the buttons. I played NYPD to their Occupy Keyboard and removed them from the premises. After a bit of cleaning up after them (they're messy after all), everything is back to normal.
If only I'd had a trained IT professional on hand to take care of this for me... <--- there's your periods

**** like that is why I always keep a can of air near my desk. How crumbs get between plastic layers, I have -no- idea, but I've had a couple keyboards that would get something jammed under a key and prevent it from being pressed that I had to get out with a toothpick

Yeah, what's the big deal about cordless anyway? This is a desktop computer. The cord just kinda lays there, to the right of my monitor. I just don't see a need for wireless. Or a wireless keyboard. I can see it on a laptop, but not a desktop.
Personally, I use wireless because the cord always gets in my way, migrates away from where it should be, gets snagged on something when I'm trying to move my mouse, knocks stuff off my desk, etc etc. I'll gladly put up with batteries for the greatly reduced aggravation. Also, I have a tendency to do this

The feet. Specifically the size 15 feet in us feet sizes.

It's a blood mouse.
I had it mined by toddlers according to my personal specifications.

Yeah. I've had stuff get jammed in under or between the keys and cause problems. But never between the plastic layers themselves. Was kinda strange.
The strangest jamming problem I ever had occurred at work (shocker). I was called to one of our tester systems to fix a problem. They had a kvm switch that was tied to some key combination on the keyboard. It would switch from the remote desktop device to the actual tester computer (mostly to save space on the bench since this was in addition to the dual monitor setup for the big tester at the other end of the bench). For some reason it wasn't switching. Of course, I hadn't set this thing up, so I didn't know how much about the configuration, so I'm wandering around in circles checking cables, moving connectors back and forth, etc. Nothing works. It looks like it's wired up right, but it's just not working.
I'm about to give up and tell them to contact the guys who actually set it up when I notice out of the corner of my eye that one of the keys on the number pad (the minus key I think) was a bit lower than the rest. I fiddle with it and *pling!*, a small washer pops out. It was wedged in between the key and the plastic around the number pad portion of the keyboard. Suddenly, the thing switches just fine! Apparently, if a key is held down long enough, it stops spitting out an endless stream of characters (because the keyboard appeared to work just fine in terms of typing text on the screen), however it somehow messed with the signal the key combo used to switch the kvm.
Very very strange.

Off my lawn, etc., etc...
I don't use the G5, but I prefer a wired mouse too, just because of the lack of delay. I doubt it makes that much of a difference in MMO playing when you aren't doing end game PvP, but then I don't have to deal with batteries. I <3 my 9 mouse buttons though.
