Wireless Mouse
Should I get the wireless apple keyboard and wireless mouse or the wired keyboard and wired mouse?
I'm getting a keyboard for my setup at home. I have a 13 inch macbook pro (the new model) and the 24 inch monitor for when I work on my desk at home. For the 24 inch screen, is it better to get the wireless apple keyboard and mouse or the wired keyboard and mouse. Also is it worth the money to get both wireless?
It really depends on you. Both have good and bad features.
The wired ones have the wire (naturally) which can get in the way on occasion and limit where the computer can be placed.
The wireless have batteries which die on occasion. (Especially the mouse if you do a lot of point and click things like 1st person shooter games.) My keyboards usually need battery replacement a couple of times a year, but if I am using the mouse heavily, it can need batteries every week or two. Both use standard AA batteries, (2 in the mouse and 4 in the keyboard) so it's nothing really expensive to replace them. It's just the inconvenience and the occasional "Bluetooth device not found" message that can be very annoying at start up.
I would get both the same simply because if 1 is wired, it limits the location of the computer. That defeats one reason for spending the extra money for the wireless. (The wireless keyboard does NOT have any USB ports like those on the wired keyboard, so a wired mouse would have to be plugged into the computer directly or via a USB hub if the keyboard is wireless.)
