Apple requires Mac users to have version 10.6.4 of their OS minimum for the Magic Trackpad, while PC drivers for Windows work from XP upwards (on download from Apple's site!).Two versions of the drivers are available depending on your PC OS: 32 or 64 b...

Easy to use, though nobody had used one previously, Superb finish, Works perfectly on your Mac and well on PC, Nice replacement for the mouse in many cases, You can set it to your liking (on Mac)...
A new outlay for a product with questionable lifespan, Need to cheat a bit to install it on PC, Very slight latency between movement on pad and the screen, The upper part of the pad is hard to click, Doesn't work well on dualscreen. Best to use it on a single screen.
The Pad is useful, pretty and practical, but for how long? It replaces the mouse nicely for many usages, but as soon as touch screens come on stream, you'll be putting it away in a drawer never to be seen again. Your mouse will still be useful...

Bigger is actually much better with trackpads. Provides very usable touch controls for Mac OS. Typical sleek, beautiful Apple design.
Dragging and dropping never works as well as it does with a mouse. Can't truly customize gestures. A tad overpriced.
