I'm currently using a G7 on my laptop and it works great, all 8 buttons
and on-the-fly sensitivity just feel good. Moreover having two battaries
is super.
But i never tested the MX1000, so i just can say that G7 rocks :)

At least in my laptop the devices still work like they did before.
I only got one problem right now: xorg does not start, if the mouse is
inside the xorg.conf (using evdev driver) but not attached. but perhaps
this is my fault.

Your gaming children will love the 2000 dpi and the on-the-fly
sensitivity. Its perfect for gaming.
