why are you looking at BT mice if you aren't sure your computer has BT to begin with??
Which MB do you have?
And wouldn't any BT mouse work?

The mouse you linked will work with a Mac as long as you have BT.

I wish the one you linked was in black. it is only available in white or blue. I guess you know that.

I use this mouse. It is black and works great. It just isn't BT enabled, but that isn't a big deal to me. Comes with a handy carrying case also.

of course he has flippin BT he said he had a mb, he was just woundering if there would be compatability issues, but since it has a mac thing and a blutooth thing there its oviously going to work.

i have the mouse you are looking at and i love it. it only comes in white and blue. it works well and bluetooth does not use a usb slot unlike those wireless mice. id say get it if you dont mind it being not black

all newer macbooks have bluetooth. click in your system preferences and look under hardware to see if one of those says bluetooth. it has a blue icon.

If he knew he had flippin BT then why did he ask "btw, does the macbook have built in bluetooth" ?
