[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 310289, member: 24098"] While the Mighty Mouse is cosmetically pleasing and complements the look of your Mac, IMO it's not the best choice out there. There are a number of glitches with it that take some getting used to. I have a Logitech V270 bluetooth mouse that works well, but it doesn't have the buttons you're after. You can use just about any wired or wireless mouse with your Mac, but if it has special buttons, you'll need to make sure it either comes with a Mac-centric driver (many do not) or you'll need to purchase a program like USB Overdrive or Steermouse (I own both and much prefer Steermouse since it works with bluetooth in addition to USB mice - as the name suggests, USB overdrive is just for USB devices). My suggestion would be to go out to your local electronics retailer and see which one fits your needs best. If it doesn't come with a Mac driver, check into Steermouse. [/QUOTE]
