I don't have a spare one m8 :/

Expensive little buggers. Cheapest wired one I found is from Amazon

Amazon.co.uk: Apple Mighty Mouse (USB): Electronics & Photo

Ignore the 3 star rating. I think they are great.

I had a mac but didnt get on with it. Not sure which model exactly.

Pretty much like this;

So may be what your after, strip it, use it etc etc - I think i put it away in the shed to save for another day, dont remember binning it but this was a year or so ago.

If its still there, your welcome to it, will check when i get home.

How comes you didn't get on with it m8? What OS was you running? Panther?

[Spennyboy]

Because it didnt work like windows

Tbh it was more of a muck around opposed to actually trying to use it.

I found myself using it and finding similar apps to windows in effect running windows on a mac.

So might as well cut out the middle man and use a PC

[Spennyboy]

Was given mine by someone who upgraded, not sure of the spec, tbh i didnt get to into it and it was a beast with the monitor and had no room for it.

Im sure its in the shed, if not, am buggered if i know
