Stocking stuffers for your MacBook--two new Targus Mac mice reviewed
Need a quick stocking stuffer for the Mac addict on your holiday gift list? We just reviewed a pair of new mice from accessory maker Targus that are specifically being pitched for use with MacBooks, iMacs, and other Apple computers.
A healthy side industry has popped up for accessories that share Apple's basic design cues, and the $69 Bluetooth Laser Mouse for Mac and $49 Wireless Mouse for Mac both have an all-white body (even though the latest MacBooks are aluminum) that seems appropriately Mac-like.
Both have one unique interesting feature--a small, dime-size, round, optical sensor that sits between the two mouse buttons in place of a traditional scroll wheel. Targus calls the concept "four-way touch scroll," and its functionality is similar to that of a trackball.
And don't worry if you're a dedicated PC user. Packaging aside, these are standard mice that will work with any Windows laptop as well.
