Which model of the wireless keyboard & mouse can support both Mac and WinXP (after using bootcamp), except the one come from Apple? Anyone is using this one "http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/HK/EN,CRID=2162,CONTENTID=11420"?
Thanks.

We use all Microsoft Intellimouse mice (5) on our Macs and PC's

Their latest laser mouse 6000 is excellent. They have a new wireless backlit keyboard that looks to be primo which we'll probably get also.

I use a leather covered black Intellimouse version at my office and plug in either MacBook or Toshiba and it works flawlessly. The Mac software Microsoft did is excellent and shows the battery life in system preferences. The battery life is unbelievable, usually several months of use on 2AA's in the mouse only. the transceiver is USB powered. 5 ***** stars from me.

Here's the link for keyboards etc.

Yeah, I use a wireless keyboard from Microsoft (the black ergonomic one). Battery life is usually around 8 months, really amazing (I use my computer for 8-12 hours a day, 6 days a week). I can't say much about their software, but their hardware is great! I'm personally not a big fan of Microsoft's mice, but I know a lot of people like them. I use Logitech mice instead.

None of Apple's wireless keyboards and mice support Windows. And this belongs in the Alternative OS forum-it has nothing to do with which Mac you're using.
