Logitech or Microsoft keyboard users?

#1 · 16-02-2005 11:57am #1

Guys, a bit of an arb question, but I'm considering a MS or Logitech wireless desktop set. The Logitech is especially appealling as it comes with that very nice MX700 mouse.

One thing I was wondering about is that in terms of Mac support, do these keyboards actually have command/option keys or do you just substitute alt and fn or something like that?

The logitech I have has option/command keys (but it's explicitly compatible with Mac, not keyboards have them).
I've a logitech mouse too, both work a treat with OS X.

I've used both Logitech and Microsoft wireless keyboards and mice and I find them both very good. The Microsoft one has a slight edge as I can use it to control iTunes from within any application. One slight niggle with the Logitech, though. Apparently it doesn't react well to having coffee spilt on it. Go figure.
