Introduction
Microsoft has clearly decided to go “Wireless” these days. The latest
wireless product to hit the streets is the Microsoft Wireless Desktop. This
product combines one wireless keyboard with a wireless mouse for total
cordless freedom. First of all we have to say this new combination targets
the consumer and business markets; it’s clearly not designed for advanced or
power users. The mouse uses the old-school ball mechanism which gives up
accuracy. However with this product corporate users will free the clutter
from their desktop while experiencing the acknowledged quality, comfort and
reliability of Microsoft Hardware products.
Installation
Installing the Microsoft Wireless Desktop is definitely easy and it will
only take a few seconds to complete. There is only one radio receiver you
have to plug in the mouse and keyboard PS/2 ports on your computer. Be sure
to not hide this radio receiver: indeed it features three LEDs that indicate
the status of the Caps Lock, Num and Scroll lock keys. The desktop requires
two AAA batteries for the mouse and two AA batteries for the keyboard. To
finish, restart your computer and install Microsoft IntelliPoint and
IntelliType drivers.
