“Think you want a Magic Mouse, Chuck?”

Chuck raises eyebrow.

Too damn cute! I love his views on technology

You’d think a guy without mutually opposable thumbs would be a little more excited about this thing.

I’m getting one of those tomorrow. It is attached to the new 21 inch IMac. Hoping to God this mouse is better than the Mighty Mouse. I had 4 of those, and finally had to buy a Logitech as there were too many issues with them.
So, is this mouse worth it? I would not have gotten one except I needed a new computer.

Can’t wait to try it out, not excited about having to put all my old stuff on my new computer though.

I’m not too proud to admit that the packaging stumped me a little bit too–especially the part when I finally get it out of the clear plastic pod. I seriously thought—just for a second—that the lower plastic part of the packaging was part of the mouse.

But it is a good lookin’ piece of shit, isn’t it?

That is a bad looking piece of shit. *snort*

As an editor, I feel compelled to tell you that, when used as an adjective, “fancy-pants” should be hyphenated.

I HATEHATEHATE tape for this very reason, I’m a disaster with the stuff, that and saran wrap — that was painful to watch…you are indeed a patient man.

Hi Jon,
Yeah, on Snow.
Also, like Heather, I think I spoke a little to soon.
I have found that NOT using a mousepad makes the Magic Mouse act appropriately. My computer desk at home is wood-old-chipped. New desk at work is Herman Miller. Totally smooth.
SO, I already have better feelings about it.

It is still clunkier but like you mentioned, the scrolling IS a home run.

Thanks.
Dave

Yeah and now she LOVES the mouse, so she spoke a little soon. As per usual.

Chuck is a zen master. I think it’s in his genes. Because this house is anything but zen.
