    I'm guessing Ebuyer will stock the mouse, they are the only major retailer selling their motherboards in the UK as far as I'm aware.

    Well if it's anything like their motherboards, I would advise users to invest in a soldering station and an infinite supply of capacitors

    Re: Biostar's first gaming mouse is rather minimal but so is the price

    wonder if they asked AMD if they could use the AM2 name?
    you would think copyright/trademark applies seen as they're both computer equipment :shrug:
    and if you say Biostar AM2, my first thought is a mobo, mainly because I'm still using an AM2+ Biostar mobo from 2009. apart from 1 ram slot being a bit wonky sometimes, its been perfectly fine for 7 years.

    but what do I know about these things IANAL

    Is there a trademark on that socket name, i know they renamed it from M.2 too AM2 because of a trademark issue but did they take out their own?
