Microsoft Wireless Desktop 5000 I was testing in recent days Microsoft Wireless Desktop 5000 [bb], a kit with keyboard, mouse and wireless transmitter of Microsoft, both with WinXP on my PC at work and the MacBook Pro from my home. I could not do the test on Windows Vista, because I am still not using the new operating system from Microsoft. Once the kit arrived by mail, no lost time, and installed to start testing. The software works well and adds an icon with a control panel for each peripheral, where you can program the keys as you like, both in Windows and the Mac The curved design of the ergonomic keyboard is quite comfortable, so comfortable that I miss her as I type these lines in my old keyboard. I'm used to QWERTY keyboard (US-International), but within hours I was totally accustomed to the keyboard ABNT2, typing with my speed ever. The keyboard has a button on gadgets which is very useful, as well as light magnifying glass, buttons, volume and zoom. The button calls the Windows Live Call Live Messenger for you to chat with your contacts. He also has an indicator that warns you when the time comes to replace the batteries. The basis for the hands is padded and very comfortable, especially for people who use the keyboard during the day, like me.\ I always liked the Microsoft mouse, but this optical mouse is the best we have used until now. The Tilt Wheel accepts commands in any direction and is perfect on both side of the scroll CoverFlow in Leopard as navigation in the files as Excel spreadsheets. As for the keyboard, I'm having trouble I readjust to my old mouse, which is also the Microsoft. My expectation for the Wireless Desktop 5000 was very high, but it went very well in testing with some small problems on Mac OS X, and the Home button not working. Now is a good make clear that this is the fault of Apple, not Microsoft. Either way the problem can be solved with a simple download and scheduling of special keys, if necessary.
