one thing microsoft make well is their keyboards and mouses, maybe apple should stop doing keyboards and mice, and windows should stop doing OS, then it will all equal out and each does their best :P

My vote is mouses :D

And yeah M$ do seem to make decent mouses.

What's wrong with the Apple keyboards though? :confused:

was actually just being funny... i must say i haven't played much games on a mac so i wouldn't know how the right click is irritating although sometimes it does tend to do funny stuff with the right click which i just hold in and then choose what i want to do.
 
my mighty mouse broke after about 2 months (trackball stopped working) replaced with Microsoft wireless 5000 and it's great. the only thing i miss is the horizontal scrolling.
 
Okay i can confirm that the Intellipoint software DOES enable the side button and the click wheel. Ive tried ver6.3 and 7

Let me get this straight: I have not touched M$ since '95. My last OS from them was 3.1 or something. Was that even an OS? Hate 'em. I do love my Mighty Mouse at work but at home, the price - oh the price. So, is anyone here a mac user that is prepared to recommend this M$ mouse to a bigot like myself? I really would like a better mouse at home...
 
Generally the MS Mouse build quality is very good, plus it doesn’t cost and arm and a leg.
Go try it at Incredible Corruption.
 
Sorry guys for the delayed response:
@alf101 - No the 6000 and 5000 are different. I would imagine the 6000 is better though.
This is the one I bought : http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseandkeyboard/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=099

@GreGorGy : I too have a Mighty Mouse which I got used to and swore I wouldnt get any other mouse but then it started getting dirty and difficult to clean. I eventually broke it open to clean, but then I had a broken MM. I also hated the way the right click was implemented. I have not tried other Mouses (Mice to some) but one thing for sure is that this MS Bluetooth mouse I bought is perfect. I would highly recomend a MS mouse. They are good at making Mouses.

@StbA : Yes they don't cost an arm and a leg and are really good quality. Apple has not listened to its customers when it comes to the mouse. They may try to innovate but with a mouse, people need it to work perfect, be comfortable and easy to clean.
