I use the magic mouse and really love it. It looks like it is all one button but it swipes horizontally as well as vertically and one side is left click and one right. It is the best mouse I've ever used. I can't understand why other types of mice don't have horizontal swipe. it is soooo useful. Love esther

The first Mac I got had a Magic Mouse. I guess it depends on what you are used to, but I couldn't stand it. I went into Best Buy and asked what my better choices were for the Mac. He immediately grabbed a Magic Mouse. I said that is what I have, and it stutters, lags and can't hit a precise point on the screen. We went to the fastest Mac he had in the store, and cranked up the settings and watched it stagger, lag and not be capable of hitting a precise point. He asked what I used on Windows. I answered a Logitech, G-9X. His response? "But that's a gaming mouse!"

While bluetooth has gotten faster, it still can't match a good gaming mouse. Fortunately both Logitech and Razer now offer Mac drivers for their mice.

Don't bother with a Mac Mouse. Get what feels good in your hand and what gives you the level of precision you are comfortable with. Also note the wireless Mac Keyboards eat batteries in a hurry.
