As a graphic designer, I require a clean, clear workspace that allows me plenty of room to move. I use a side-by-side monitor setup, which means space is already at a premium. When I’m sitting at my computer using design software, the last thing I want is to be impeded by my mouse. Mouse wires have a tendency to tangle and restrict my ability to work quickly. My job is entirely deadline driven, so I rarely have a moment to spare.
Recently I picked up a Microsoft wireless optical mouse. It was simple to install, and it provided me with free rein to complete everyday tasks without struggling against a tangled mouse cord. The wireless mouse also allows me to work at a greater distance away from my computer, just in case I feel like changing my workspace setup.
Coby Electronics Corporation was founded in 1991, and they are headquartered in Lake Success, New York. The company is a manufacturer of various electronics. Since their debut, they have expanded to include offices in places such as the United States, China, and Mexico. Their main target markets are the USA and Europe. The site founder was Young Dong Lee, who originally had an electronics company named Cowboy. By removing a “w” and “o,” the name Coby was created.
Ever since 2006, the company has made a concerted effort to represent themselves in a different light. While they are typically associated with the more reasonably priced, lower end market, they are attempting to rebrand themselves into a higher end, more luxury brand. Regardless of which market they’re attempting to reach, it’s common to see a Coby CD player, MP3 player, DVD player, televisions, and more.
