Comments on: I’ve Decided, the Apple Mighty Mouse SUCKS! http://blog.popstalin.com/articles/general/ive-decided-the-apple-mighty-mouse-sucks The Pop Stalin Design Manifesto Tue, 21 Apr 2009 01:04:24 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Jane http://blog.popstalin.com/articles/general/ive-decided-the-apple-mighty-mouse-sucks#comment-574 Jane Mon, 11 Aug 2008 15:54:36 +0000 http://blog.popstalin.com/?p=96#comment-574 So far the mouse scrolls more smoothly, but I just substituted an old Kensington wheel mouse because the Mighty Mouse's tiny scroll ball irritates my index finger far more than the rubber-padded wheel. Not as smooth a scroll, but that irritation is distracting when you are scrolling many lengthy documents while researching.

It is sooooooooo slow, I have the worst carpet tunnel just from using it a year now and the entire right side of my body hurts due to the constant crawling, it is like shifting a piece of lead over the table and onto the screen. Oh my, the mighty mouse is just the slowest piece of equipment I have ever owned. Curse the MM, curse it! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...they should have called it mighty snail. Do not buy this product. I had to vent, sorry...I love my MAC otherwise. I do. I hate hate hate my Mighty Mouse.

I'm guessing you're having some rare issues. @Richard- Couldn't agree more. I had to go to the Genius bar the other day and I watched this woman bring in her Mighty Mouse and the guy told her they sell a "special cloth" to help clean it. I thought to myself, why not create a better mouse? Oh well! @Bill-

I think i've cursed it about a million times and bought me a nice Logitech wich clicks where i want it to, doesn't hurt my hand and has a wheel that doesn't jam all the time! Mightymouse sucks big time! I love my Mac but i hate the mouse!

Asked him about sending the computer back (my first mac). After he talked to his svisor he told me wthn 14 days. Been almost a month. Screwed. Unlike most, my biggest complaint is the two-speed feature wherein the thing slows down to a crawl when you get half inch from the icon you want to click. I would NOT recommend anyone switch to mac. Just deal with Vista on a PC, the devil you know. Just got off the phone w/mac tech guy who says he’s not aware of any problems. Asked him about sending the computer back (my first mac).

In particolare ho trovato assai scomodo il Mighty Mouse. Anche se cablato e ottimo è impreciso e non molto sensibile, senza contare che ha una forma che non è proprio ergonomica. Il fatto che non abbia i tasti destro e sinistro separati, rende molto frequenti - almeno all’inizio - gli errori di click, con menu contestuali che si aprono quando non vorresti e non si aprono quando servono. Ma a questo c’è rimedio, è solo questione di abitudine. Inoltre la calamita per agganciare il remote control (assai difficile da trovare) è debole e non sempre riesce a reggere i pochi grammi del gadget, che finisce quindi per impolverarsi sulla scrivania.
