Hi Mark,
Thank you for this. I was actually reacting to the link posted earlier that led to a keyboard product, but this is in fact helpful, since it reminds me that Logitech does indeed make reasonable Mac compatible keyboards.
Best,
Shirley

Shirley,
The Logitech LX8 is my (and my editing crew's) mouse of choice. It's wireless
and it's laser (as opposed to optical). It's very ergonomic (i.e. feels good)
and batteries last a very long time. Very accurate too - I have my station plus
seven other editors using them with no complaints. Has left-click, right-click,
middle vertical/horizontal scroll wheel, and assignable function buttons on the
sides. And since it's been replaced (by a newer model with the same function
set), it can be had for very cheap. Bought a couple for home too - replaced
every mouse on every system I use (Mac / PC compatible).
Hope that's helpful.
-Mark

actually. I managed to get my hands on an older Mac keyboard that was lying
around the client's space, and it has normal size function keys at least, but it
still lacks the grouping in fours that became the basis of my muscle memory for
over ten years. I'm sure Bella has something, but they don't make true Mac
keyboards, and the action on their keyboards is crappy.
