[citation][nom]doc70[/nom]A little off-topic, but does anyone else have problems with the hide/show toggle at comments? Tried FF and IE but no success. Actually, in IE I get :Webpage error detailsUser Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; Trident/4.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729)Timestamp: Fri, 12 Mar 2010 00:10:04 UTCMessage: 'commentsSortableObj' is undefinedLine: 776Char: 1Code: 0URI: http://www.tomshardware.com/news/r [...] ,9859.htmlWhat's up with that, moderators?[/citation]

Agreed. Not all comments that get downvoted into oblivion deserve it. I still want to be able to see.

Hmm.. Can Mac user handle mouse with +5 buttons? Hey I'm just asking since Steve Jobs once said that mouse with more than one button is too complicated for Mac users.

Stands to reason they're a gaming company why limit who their selling to? That only cuts out profit.

when will Razer give support for Win7?
i have the latest drivers for both my Razer lycosa, and salmosa, and none work properly any of the time.
my keyboard ghosts, and the mouse sometimes just doesn't work... i';ve tried every driver, and even the un-razer counterparts (eg. HP voodooDNA) drivers, and still nothing works
get good support for one thing, then move on and expand when u have a reputation (normally a good one)

logitech gets my vote for new PC peripherals when these die 🙁

[citation]well, all that razer has to do is replace the black paint with white and done... profit[/citation]

They still need to make Mac drivers/tools, and seeing how Razer is slow on driver enhancements it may take some effort. That 'slow' is comming from my experience with Razer keyboard - Razer Lycosa does not even support key remapping, and since it support macros on all those keys it is driver/tools limitation, not hardware one. And yet, after all this time, they did not include remapping in Lycosa driver support. BTW, I'm not saying that they had to do it - they cleverly marketed 'fully programmable keys' , but without distinction if 'programmable' means remapping and macroing, or only macroing. But supposing that they were able to support remapping just by driver/tools update, and that they did not do it, suggest that customizing drivers/tools is not so easy for them ... therefore port to Mac is not just 'coloring it white' ;p

[citation][nom]otacon72[/nom]I can see the headlines now "Apple releases it's first gaming computer the 'You-can't-afford-it-2000'. Available now for an MSRP of only $5,000*........*Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse extra"[/citation]

Apple's mainstream portables are already priced around the same as high-end gaming portables for Windows!

(written on an aging MacBook Core Duo, definitely not one of the systems in mention!)
