The Apple Pro Mouse remains the most beautiful mouse ever made. I miss when electronics had more personality. Now companies just slap gaudy RGB on everything and call it a day.
One of the better examples of form over function. I really disliked actually using this mouse whenever I had to.
still better than the hockey puck nonsense it replaced.
No offense but these things are horrendous to use. The mouse design has been largely perfected(and it ain’t this design), what else is there to do besides add RGB to stand out?
Complaints about rgb are always odd to me because you can just turn it off if you dislike it. Even really cheap items without software have an “off” in the color cycles.
As a 38 year old woman I want rgb everything, my entire computer rainbows and I love it
It was certainly striking looking, as was the computers it matched with. I can’t say I enjoyed using them, though. I don’t mind the single button but the ergonomics were poor and hurt my hand after long sessions.
Apple has never made a mouse that didn’t suck. Fight me.
(Their trackpads tho, glorious)
sensel is gonna change that, hopefully.
Seems like Apple mice have always been form over function.
Apple fought hard against two-button mouse if I recall correctly.
Completely ass to use. Form over function is bad.
It sure was purdy though.
The clear plastic Apple keyboards that were around at about the same time as this mouse were actually pretty decent while keeping the cool transparent aesthetic
And then they created the Magic Mouse, the biggest turd ever created in the history of mice.
I loved the speakers with the same aesthetic
Loved that era of Apple.
I miss the days when you could upgrade the processor (and ram, and storage, and a few other bits) in Mac laptops - growing up my dad’s main laptop was a G3 PowerBook that he stuck a G4 and a bunch of extra ram into!
