So you like Apple’s fancy Magic Mouse? Its a beautiful piece of engineering with an insane price tag of $70. Problem is, even at $70, it only works on Macs leaving Windows users in the dust. But thanks to a hidden update here is how you get this little guy to work in Windows XP (32 bit) to Windows 7.

Thanks to a little hackery from Apple’s Bluetooth Update (located here) the Magic Mouses driver was extracted via WinRar resulting in a 32bit version and a 64bit version that you can install on any ordinary Windows PC that will enable all the scrolling ‘magic’ of the Magic Mouse.

I would not mind giving this mouse a whirl :o
 
My wife has one her iMac. It is indeed interesting to use. But it has a basic flaw... when you swipe up, down, left or right to scroll, there is a tendency for the mouse to move too :) I prefer a good normal mouse with a scroll wheel.
 
why would you want to use this mouse? its horrific. but then again, i have never liked Mac mouses, they just don't feel right to me.
 
urgh, I used the mighty mouse and it was truly awful, looks like they've put a bit more design and ergonomics into this one!
