Razer DeathAdder 1800dpi Mouse for Mac Review

As far as mouse features go, these are very basic for the PC, but is an awesome step forward from the typical standard one-button Mac mouse. The Razer DeathAdder is one of the coolest-looking mice you can use on your Mac, too. You’ll have to do some extra programming to extract more functionality from your Mac applications and games, but this isn’t incredibly overwhelming, partly because there are only a handful of buttons you can program.

Even if you’re not a fan of the three games worth playing on the Mac (which are also on the PC), you can easily switch this mouse between a PC and Macintosh. So, if you’re one of the urban professionals who like to LAN and use their Mac, then this mouse is one to consider. You can bring more functionality and usability to your Apple computer, then take it with you to a LAN party with your PC.

The mouse isn’t the most robust rodent in terms of features, especially when compared with higher-end gaming mice, but for a Mac user is absolutely fantastic. It is a mid-grade gaming mouse, so it can pull triple duty as a good gaming mouse, office mouse, and PC mouse. If you were dead set on a Razer DeathAddrer anyway, then why not go with the Mac version? You can compare prices between the two here, and the Mac version can actually a few dollars cheaper.
