Apple mouse

Advantages: Almost brilliant design, looks great.
Disadvantages: Expensive, limited programming for buttons.

...(This review is written having tested the hardware on Mac OS X Leopard and Windows Vista) This year, I purchased my first Apple computer. Deciding to go for the iMac, an all-in-one desktop computer. From their website, Apple include either the wired or wireless Mighty Mouse with the purchase, the Wireless option being a £13.99 upgrade option, but no option to get the computer without the mouse. Because I have so many computer mice lying around, I was torn between selling the default (wired) Mighty Mouse when the computer arrived, or upgrading to the Wireless option and keeping it, I have far too many cables for electronics to want to add more wires, so I decided I would purchase all of the wireless options with the iMac, but paying extra money for something I didn't particularly need was a nuisance.

Advantages: Simplistic, comfortable, accurate, diverse buttons
Disadvantages: Can be seen to be expensive

...Apple's Mighty Mouse is an amazing product, it fits comfortably into your hand offering a wide variety of options. With the middle button opening dashboard, 'squeese' the sides for expose, a unique sroll ball, and obvious right and left click. Ideal for right and left handers as the buttons can be switched around. The range of the bluetooth is also very good, spanning approx 5-10 metres.

Advantages: No ball to gather fluff, no tail to get in a tangle.
Disadvantages: Uses batteries.

...at least until a farmer friend told us about the tail-less mouse called an Apple Wireless. Perfect. A Tail-less Mouse ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* This little mouse is perfectly white and smooth. I suspect he is blind as he never winces when I have a setback and reach for my carving knife. He sits there perfectly still but is always reactive when I move him around on his little pad. He has no tail tucked between his legs. His tail is redundant because he has intelligent Bluetooth Adoptive Frequency Hopping software inside his body which helps to avoid frequencies used by other wireless devices and networks in his vicinity like the very beautiful Apple Keyboard just nearby, mobile phones or remote control toys. A Smooth Operator ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Paddy the mouse is a smooth touch. His back is a nice rounded shape and he is happy for you to put... Read review
