Hi all,

That's it, after planning for quite a while my PC has gone out with a bang and today I will be ordering my iMac 27. Excited as I am, I still have some questions on my mind.

I know there are some third party drivers/plugin's for the magic mouse to allow pinch/zoom. But, I don't know which to choose. From those who have experience with using them, which one would you recommend?

I use Better Touch Tool with my Magic Mouse and Magic Track Pad. It works well, and is updated frequently.

Agreed with the above. I don't use a 3rd party Magic mouse plugin. But if I was to use one, I'd surely go for Better Touch Tool.

BTT here too.
Great Tools For Your Mac By Andreas Hegenberg BetterTouchTool & SecondBar
Note that it also gives you the windows 7 snapping capability as well.
Plus it has support for the magic mouse.
From the site - I think he is working on getting different settings for the magic trackpad (vs the built in trackpad as well)
Lastly it is free as in beer.
