i don't know how you can handle 256mb in the ibook. sometimes 768mb in mine doesn't seem like it's enough.

I will be upgrading the RAM as soon as I can. It's not a high priority of mine though, I only really use the laptop for surfing the net, I have my iMac for everything else.

Thanks dude. It took me a little while to decide on something that I liked and that was functional. Not used a PC for personal use since I switched way back in January. Originally got a Mac Mini, my brother and his girlfriend have that now that I've got an iMac.

Bass87 - Nice gear, however there is no such thing as a Bluetooth Mighty Mouse.......yet

Fogtripped - My bets are most people clean their desks before posting on Neowin!

Heheh, yeah that's what I meant, as soon as the Mighty Mouse is out in a bluetooth version then I'll snap it up.

Oh, and yes, I did clean my desk before taking the pic's. It's cluttered again now!

Why would anyone want to replace such a great mouse plus has so many buttons!

I know i want all my hardware to match, Apple hardware has a nice look to it, and adding a different mouse detracts from the "cleanness" of the white hardware... or something like that.

im sorry but the mighty mouse sucks its just apple fan boy hype, youd be a fool to change to it from your mx1000. My mx1000 and G5 are good friends they would stomp on a mighty mouse.

I've been using macs for about a year or two now, and have NEVER had a need for a right click or any other buttons. I do everything with my keyboard and i think it's faster. Why apple even made the top have two "regions" is beyond me.

It's all personal pref...

I will pick up a mighty mouse when they become bluetooth too...

sometimes I don't think 1.25GB is enough...

Like somebody mentioned, I like all my hardware to match. With all the shiny white stuff on my desk (iMac, iBook) the black Logitech MX1000 looks a little out of place.

I will buy a Bluetooth Mighty Mouse when they are released, but I may eventually stay with the MX1000.

Bass and nitro...whered you guys get your desks and if you can...could you provide a link?

Mines a Jerker desk from Ikea. Mine's in the Black Ash colour.

bass if u dont mind me asking, how much was that desk?  i was thinking of replacing the one i have now with one from ikea but i am low on funds.  also what are the dimensions of it?

No problem.

The desk was ?58 I think when I bought it, which was about 3 months ago. Looks like the price has gone up to ?64 now though, according to XE.com thats $115.540.

The dimensions are:-

Width: 160 cm

Depth: 80 cm

Height: 72 cm

More than enough space and it is such a stable desk. Well worth the mone:yes:s:
