Magic Mouse!

This is not a PC vs MAC debate. I’m not a fan of PC and I’m not a fan of MAC. I just use a PC, because it’s like religion: the one you’re born with is the one you’ll probably remain loyal too. My parents bought a PC, thus I use a PC. However, Apple is also awesome. Really innovative products and stylish too. Now Apple’s newest product, the Magic Mouse, has been revealed… Can someone say “teh lulz?”

First off, Magic Mouse. Yes. Let’s say that again. Magic Mouse. Magic. Mouse. If you abbreviate it, it is almost the sound everyone makes before bursting out in laughter: mmmm? It’s the silliest name I’ve heard since the Afrikaans translation of Dumbledore: Dompeldorius [if I'm not mistaken?]. Alas, names aside, the mouse looks cool. It’s ridiculously sleek: Trinity-from-the-Matrix kinda sleek.

However, design isn’t everything. I read some of the descriptions what Mouse the Magician this Magic Mouse can do. Swipe things and all that jazz. Go look at the official Apple page. However this particularly boggled me: the screen zoom.

Isn’t that just what a normal mouse wheel can do? I can also enlarge things while holding the control key. It’s like the weakest disguise for a mouse wheel ever. Magic Mouse has to be experienced before I’m convinced of the faux wheel-less mouse. I bet they called it magic, ’cause it magically makes millions of Mac owners drool. MAGIC MOUSE! REJOICE!

    I reckon they called it magic because it can finally right click - something over zealous mac fans never knew existed and will be overjoyed to discover.
