Microsoft mouse for Mac
I already knew that Apple had problems releasing a decent mouse, now I know that Microsoft is trying some “camouflage” to sell its products to Apple customers. Anyway, it reminds me of this “iPod redesigned by Microsoft” Youtube video. Via Valleywag.
Yeh, Apple really need to put a little more work in on the mouse front.
I made a switch over to Mac last summer, and I brought my gozillion buttoned Logitech MX1000 mouse along with me. Getting the thing working smoothly was tough enough (had to buy some third party drivers), but I’ve managed to get it all running smoothly after a serous amount of tweaking.
The only problem now is that it just doesn’t look that swish. I wish Apple (or even Logitech) would make a MacBook Pro chassis coloured version of this;

I work at a software company where we all use both Macs and PCs. I don’t think that I’ve seen more than a few Apple mice in house. The most common mouse in the house is the Microsoft wheel mouse. And now that I look at mine more closely… man it really needs to be cleaned!
I just bought the Microsoft Explorer Miii Mouse – cordless – blue track, with snap in transceiver and I don’t think I like it. It has two buttons and the left click button which should open anything with a double click will not at all and I have to right click and pull down the menu to open something as simple as an email. Do you know anything about this mouse> Should I just take it bak? And what are thoughts on what I should buy instead? Thanks
