Non Mac Keyboard + Mouse ?

gajanan · 10th December 2007, 15:54

The Mac keyboard costs 250 and so does the mouse (wired) at istyle, total to 500dhs. Thats a little too much to spend for me. Is there a MAC specific alternative for a keyboard + mouse (wired or wireless) ? and where can i find it in Abu dhabi or dubai. These are the ones i found on the apple store:

Kensington SlimType Keyboard for Mac
Logitech Cordless Desktop S 530 Laser for Mac
Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop

Any idea where i can find these and at approx what prices ? I want to replace my keyboard and mouse both.

Thanks and regards.

Most USB Mouse and keyboards work on Mac.
However, you will run into problems with Arabic with Windows keyboards on Tiger (and before).
Leopard has this resolved, however.

As far as Mouses (or is it Mice?) are concerned take your pick.
I like the Logitech MX500.
