Hi Claudio, I had to do pair some devices recently for both Logitech Unifying receiver as well as How Dell Universal Pairing receiver (out of scope here), and it was a bit of a faff having to source another machine and OS. So, purely from a user perspective, given that a single receiver can pair up to six devices, it would be nice not having to use another machine/OS to do the pairing step :^) Regards, Raf
