Apple Might Mouse specs

Yes I know the Mighty Mouse has been around since 2005, but I want to open a thread for users who use this mouse on a Desktop PC!

I have to say, it is not as fast as those gaming mouse but it sure does have its own style and functions. I used it to do my Maya and oh my, the scrolling was really a wonderful experience. You know how normal mouse's scroll has that 'notch' thing, somethings with every notch you scroll more than you want to? Well the mighty mouse solves that with gradual scrolling.

And did you know, that the mighty mouse has 5 buttons in total? Haha.. bet you didn't know. It has left right, right click, middle mouse, and 2 other side buttons (which are the grip parts)

To fully utilize your Apple Mighty Mouse on Windows, you need to download these two drivers.

DRIVERS:
XMouse
AppleMProUSB
There're 2 utilities - XMouse and AppleM Pro USB - can make Mighty Mouse fully funtional in Windows XP.
XMouse gives you the abilitiy to customize the function of MM side-button,
and AppleM Pro USB makes the scroll ball scroll vertically and HORIZONTALLY

Retail Price:
Wireless Mighty Mouse = RM279
Wired Mighty Mouse = RM209
(with reference to CG Computers)

But I think it you should be able to get it cheaper elsewhere... try maybe Lowyat.

Quite pricey eh

Haha.. good point. Never really thought of that... perhaps some Mac users can come in also to comment or share their experience then bump the to the front page of LYN for Windows users to see

So btw, are you a mac user?

Haha cool~

I just started to use a Mac (it was a iMac G4) like last 2 years when I realised my gf had one. Played around with it. What I really like about the Mac is that it just works right out of the box. And best is, although the Mac is quite old, it can still play games/run software that is quite current. Unlike PC where almost every year or two have to changed graphic card or something because requirements keep increasing

But anyway back to the mouse. I just feel that its so cool that finally there is a two button mouse by Apple. Now people can use it for Windows too

Is it? The one I am using is the Wired Mighty Mouse.... anyone can confirm this?

But I am talking really based on experience because I was using a G4 with only 1Ghz cpu.. graphic card also dunno what. But I download quite a recent game and it did not lag. I was really shocked. Of course its not a very high requirement game but for a very old pc to play a recent game.. thats pretty good

Anyway back to the mighty mouse, I realised the sensitivity is not that well.. some surfaces it cant respond well.

It does take a while to get used to but its meant to sell for its design...

Gosh, I still think its cool that it actually just one click but '3' buttons in actuality

Yea thats exactly what I said, its 'one click' but with the function of 3 buttons ..... (yes due to the sensors running underneath it)

Yes, I also forgot the 2 buttons at the sides. Which also can be used with windows if u install the additional driver
