Review page with info. (http://www.driverheaven.net/reviews.php?reviewid=838&pageid=3)

I dunno if its too obvious to mention or what, because I have seen like 3-4 reviews of this mouse, with absolutely no mention of the fact that it is a skinned Logitech G9.

But it has a little alien head to sniff the crotch of your index and middle finger.

I'm not really surprised that it's a skinned G9, Logitech does that a lot (at least, they used to). What I am surprised at is that there's no mention of Logitech anywhere on the thing; usually the have their logo/etc on the FCC info panel, but in this case, even that is replaced by Alienware.

I gotta say though, I like the look of the original G9 a lot better.

Yeah, my ancient Dell mouse is a Logitech, but it does say Logitech on the bottom.
