    Targus Wireless Mouse for Mac (with USB receiver) Review

    System Requirements:

    USB Port, Mac OSX 10.4 or later

    2 AA batteries (included)

    The USB receiver is small and unobtrusive, it sticks out less than the power cord plug on my MacBook Pro. I won’t have to worry about accidentally snapping the receiver off.

    Another great feature is that the USB receiver is stored inside the cover of the mouse (very convenient and space saving for travel)
