I have had it [MS Intellimouse wireless mouse] on my home Mac for
about 3 months now with an average of 3+ hours a day on and am still
on the first set of batteries. They claim 6 ' range, but I have gone
to about 12' and still have perfect functionality.
Ok. I gotta ask... What do you do with a mouse 12' away?
:)
...I'm writing these suggestions (Thanks folx!) down, to take with
me. Gonna head to Microcenter probably tomorrow or monday (long
drive). As I recall, they have a good selection.
Just remember, how you interact with your computer is more important
than a few megahertz. Give me a nicer monitor, KB and mouse over a
slightly faster computer anyday. I have a heavy usb keyboard (almost
as good as the Apple Extended ADB) a Logitech optical mouse and a
21" Sony flat crt hooked up to my hot rodded beige (G4 533, 512MB,
Radeon 7000) at work and it wasn't until recently that I started
hitting the wall with what I am asking the beige to do.
ya. I'm using my old ADB Datadesk Switchboard (bought in '92). Far
superior to every USB keyboard I've seen so far. Bigger monitor will
be next.
