The same mouse you are using, the Logitech® MX™700 Cordless Optical Mouse, is also available for the Mac. The one button mouse issue is nonsensical, and is quite funny to think that people still believe that. I personally use an Intuos 2 Wacom tablet, on my Mac, and I chucked the one button mouse into the drawer when I got my computer. :D

Man, that case is huge! It looks like the kid can fit inside of it! LOL. It looks pretty neat though.

I know you can have other mice for the mac. I was just stating, that the standard ones, the ones i am forced to use at school, annoying me. I keep trying to use the right click, forgetting its not there. lol.

That's what i've got to use this year and as for Macs before last week i'd never even seen one and know i find out half my course is done using them.

yeah. My school just got 30 new Emacs. Thats ok though, they just got 30 new Dells too. :D

Dell is better than mac... but I personally would not be caught dead with a dell :D

Hey man, good choice with the MX 700. Was it me that brought that to your attention?

Yep

Yeah, the MX700 rocks. I have 2 of them: one on my Dell tower and one on my Apple Powerbook. The best of both worlds. ;)

Have you had any issues with the paint wearing off the mouse at the rear? I have had my MX700 about 2 months having bought it after seeing it reviewed on Tom's Hardware, and it looks like I have attacked it with sandpaper. I have sent a slightly rude email to Logitech (none of my other mice have done this after years of useful use) but wondered if anyone else has had the same problem?

hey guys, I think that this will be my next computer...

I want to get the extreme

I would love to go out in the park and work on my 3d stuff!! Man, I could do so much more, when I am traveling and all kinds of stuff. Right now I have a dual 2.2 ghz athlon with about 1 gb of ram and only one internal 40 gb hardrive !!! kinda sucks, but I have a large external hardrive where I store all of my files so I can easily go from one computer to the next. It seams to me my computer is allready getting old :( need something new, and I think that the labtop would greatly inhance my ability to work on my stuff... oh well, bad thing about Athlons, is that they can easily overheat, very annoying. Talk to ya later,
Brian

Maybe consider getting something with a Quadro FX go! in it... the hardware rendering is so worth it! the video card even in the extreme is just intel integrated graphics, which means just an okay GPU that uses your system's ram, not video ram... much slower... :banghead:

ckyuk 03-09-2003 09:20 PM

Yeah i've been looking at the new Quadro FX 3000 but £1,619 isn't cheap so i might get the Quadro4 980 XGL at £440
