Hi,

I got myself a new keyboard and another MIghty Mouse (MM). I was going to take the new one to the office, but was wondering if anything is different between the one I have at home, which is one of the original MM's and the new one.

Thanks.

Frank
 
Of course there's a chance that Apple has made minor engineering revisions/improvements to the Mighty Mouse to cut production cost, or improve reliability. However, I haven't heard of anyone discovering anything like that, and there's certainly not been any official/significant changes.

Dumb question from my side. Does it feel different to you? Does it look different? What makes you think that there is a difference between the two?

It could well be that apple has done minor changes on the mouse maybe even changed manufacturers in the meantime.

The keyboard is a lot nicer. I like the softer feel. I used to like the clicky IBM keyboards, but Apples are great.

The Mighty Mouse is really cool. Transparent 2-button with an eraser sized track ball. I'm sold on it. The MM is programable. I bring up Expose by clicking the trackball.

What's the warranty??

I brought my new one to the office. I love it.
Now if only I can find an easy way to hook my Mac to my LCD TV, I'd have something.

I prefer to leave the default squeeze button setting to Exposé and Dashboard to centre click. Since I don't use dashboard much, (though i don't own a mac at the moment, I use them a fair bit), I guess it would be sensible to redefine the centre click to a common function, but I like the default settings, they fit me near perfectly.
 
I have the track ball set to Expose when I click it. I love using Expose and the button is always handy on top of the mouse.

The warranty is 1 year from date of purchase :)
