    Hey.

    I'm about to move from my 4 year old pc, to a (brand) new white MacBook.
    On that note I would like to know if there is ANY possibility to use my lovely Logitech MX Revolution and Logitech DiNovo Edge with the MacBook.?? I don't need all the extras that these two products offer, just the abbility to use the mouse as a mouse, and the keyboard as a (you guessed it) keyboard...

    Does anybody have any help, information or experience with this?

    Thanks in advance,

    Sander

    The mouse will work for sure.

    Logitech offers drivers for MX Revolution on OSX - that's always a good sign.

    I don't know about the keyboard and I couldn't find any drivers from Logitech for it with OSX. But you could take it with you to an Apple Store and I'm sure they would let you try it out ;).

    So that means that I can use all the functions of the MX Revolution, that I don't use, anyway?? Cool!!

    Hmm.. I would love to.. Probelm is just, that there are no official apple stores in denmark.. so I'll have to go to a Apple certified reatailer.. it really sucks not having an apple store..!

    Or anywhere that actually sells the Apple MacBook. Also, someone else on this forum will probably be able to offer you more information.

    But if you can try it out firsthand that would be best.
