Should I get the wireless apple keyboard and wireless mouse or the wired keyboard and wired mouse?

Jun 15, 2009 by Mike | Posted in Laptops & Notebooks

I get a keyboard for my installation at home. I have a 13-inch MacBook Pro (new model) and 24-inch monitor when I work on my home office. For the 24-inch screen, is it better to get the Apple keyboard and wireless mouse or keyboard and mouse wired. So is it worth the money for both wireless?

That depends on you. Both have good and bad features.

The wire is the wire (of course) which may impede the opportunity and limit where the computer can be placed.

The wireless mouse is equipped with batteries that die on occasion. (Especially the mouse if you do a lot of point and click things like 1st person shooter games.) My keyboards usually require battery replacement a couple of times a year, but if I'm using the mouse heavily he may need batteries every week or two. Both use standard AA batteries, (2 mice and 4 in the keyboard) so it's nothing really expensive to replace.It is simply the discomfort and occasional "Bluetooth device not found" message that can be very annoying to boot.

I would get both the same simply because if 1 is wired, it limits the location of the computer. Defeat that one reason for spending extra money for radio. (The wireless keyboard has no USB ports as on the wired keyboard, so a wired mouse will be plugged into the computer directly or via a USB hub if the keyboard is wireless.
