A Decent Tool - I was looking for a double-sided mouse to replace the one that came with my iMac. This one was priced right and has worked out well for me. It doesn t scroll very smoothly which might be an annoyance to some, but it works well for normal, everyday word processing and Internet uses. It is comfortable as well.
Not impressed. - It s not bad for a cheap mouse, which was what I was after. But, it had a really bright red light under it, and the scroll wheel clicks really loudly. It feels cheap and performs the same. Oh well--
Macally good choice - The USB Optical Internet Mouse is as advertised, and a good choice for Mac users who aren t ready for a wireless mouse. Good value, lightweight and is not too big.
Doesn t work on Intel Macs - go to Logitech - while I like the feel of this mouse, there is no excuse for the useless drivers and lack of clarification or support about its supposed programmability.I am not going to waste time trying to figure out whether this device will ever work. When I try to set preferences , options are not available on my Intel MacBkPro running 10.4.11 -- the continue button is greyed out. I think this just doesn t work on Intel Macs but MacAlly won t say that definitively. I confirm the others who say they can t get the software to work.Buy a Logitech, they work better, they support better and the program like a dream.
Mediocre Mouse, Lousy for Mac - The mouse works adequately but only barely. It is not accurate, when I click one line of text, it often rolls to another and selects that instead.The software that came with is useless for Macintosh, and this mouse will not wake a sleeping Mac.It is comfortable in my small hand. Unlike most Mac mice, it has right and left buttons that work as expected. The scroll button is extremely grating, rough and difficult to roll. And then only rolls vertically. For $21, it s only about 50% overpriced. I needed a mouse in a hurry after I poured milk all over my last one, a Kinsington they don t make anymore, and when I took that one apart to dry it out, small parts jumped out and escaped into the trash on my floor, and this one arrived two days later. Hooray Amazon. Boo Macally.Apple s Mickey Mouse -- er Mighty Mouse -- is better, but way overpriced. This will do till I find something better.
