Apples Magic Mouse

Apple's Magic Mouse

If you haven’t tried Apple’s Magic Mouse yet, you should. It’s not radically different from an old-school mouse, but it’s really cool. The multi-touch features are pretty cool too..but like I said, it’s still a mouse. For more information on the mouse, go to Apple’s Magic Mouse page. It’s a pretty decent mouse; especially considering its Bluetooth, and multi-touch and only costs $69.00 from the Apple Store.

Here’s the catch. It only works on Mac’s. There’s no drivers for the Magic Mouse on Windows. Until now…(well..it’s still not 100% legit, but hey, if it’s good, then who cares, right?)

But Dan at UNEASYsilence has posted both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the latest Windows drivers for the Magic Mouse, which Apple delivered via an update for Apple’s Bootcamp. You can find his blog post which has the drivers at http://uneasysilence.com/archive/2009/11/14588/.

    Neat! Do you have one? Do you think this style of mouse is good or bad for gaming?

    My dad has one, I might just grab his at some point and try it out..I just installed the drivers; now I just have to steal his mouse for a few minutes and try it out.

    I'm not sure..it might be a little weird since there's no definite spot for the right/left buttons, and I'm not sure if the scroll works nicely with games.But I'm sure it's something people can get used to…
