Complete N00b question here:
Will a standard pc usb mouse and keyboard work with a mac?

[social_lurker]

Yes as long as they're usb connections.

I recently set up a logitech usb wireless keyboard and mouse with a Mac Mini (the box didnt say Mac compatible, so I was a bit dubious), but it installed very quickly and works perfectly.

it will work perfectly

just remember your @ symbol is on number 2

and your " symbol is on your ' key

(or you can remap the keys i think?)

Warning - You may eventually succumb to the Apple keyboard!

I think the Command and Option keys are the 'wrong' way round as well with alt/option staying in it's PC location and the Meta/Windows key becoming command.

Only if you've never tried anything better.

As with so many things in life, it comes down to personal preference
