I know it's not officially supported, but if you do it, I have a few questions:

1. What driver to you use? (I own ControllerMate, but there are others.)

2. Can you make the wheel click ("normal" feel) instead of spinning free? (That switch on the bottom--does it work on Mac?)

3. Does your Mac know when you click the wheel button? (Some other Logitech mice use wheel-click to toggle free spinning, so the Mac never receives middle clicks.)

4. Can you change the DPI? (Not in software, I'm sure, but do the +/- buttons work?)

5. Is your DPI choice stored and remembered?

6. Does the Profile button on the bottom do anything? (I don't need that--just curious. I know I could program it via Windows but I don't plan to.)

Thanks in advance! The G9 is the only gaming mouse that might have (JUST barely) enough buttons for my needs. Hopefully
