History Logitech began in 1981, just at the time when the computer mouse was just starting its triumphant march in the still young world of personal computers. The company, which was originally engaged in the production of this type of manipulators exclusively, was founded by Daniel Borel, Pierluigi Zappacosta and Giacomo Marini. It happened in the Swiss town of Apples (Apples, Switzerland). Here you can note the original match between the name of the area and the company Apple, thanks to which the mouse has gained its current popularity.
As the popularity of mice grew, so did the popularity Logitech, which immediately placed emphasis on quality and innovation. Over time, the range of products also increased - keyboards, webcams, gamepads, joysticks, headsets, computer acoustics appeared - the most diverse peripherals for computers, game consoles, mobile equipment and consumer electronics.

Interesting fact
The principle of warranty replacement of failed products is interesting. If the check is lost, then the warranty period is counted from the date of manufacture of the mouse (it is found out by the serial number). The consumer is invited to simply render his device completely incapacitated, for example with a hammer. Then you need to confirm this act of vandalism through a photograph, spreading the remains on a paper sheet on which the serial number is written by hand (it is necessary to take such a photo so that it can be seen that this is really the same device). After that, a new similar device is sent to the specified address. This is done, of course, in cases where the service center Logitech there is no "side by side".
