Macbook @ Keyboards...

[The Boosh!]

Hello!

I want to use my mac in clamshell mode connected to a mouse and a keyboard. I've got a Magic mouse which works (obviously) but i'm struggling a bit on the keyboard front.

Apple's official keyboard is £60 from the apple store. As nice as it is, I won't use it that often to warrant that sort of money on a keyboard.

My question is - Can I get ANY bluetooth keyboard, and it will work fine?

i.e if I bought this:

Would it work, or is it official apple stuff only?

thanks

Any bluetooth keyboard should work.

I use a logitech one, with the UK PC layout. You can set up an icon on the menu bar to easily switch keyboard layouts too which is handy.

What apt timing, I'm feeling a bit sensitive about using external keyboards since annihilating my work laptop with a bottle of oasis yesterday. Right now I'm sat on a 10 year old dell keyboard and a 10 year old microsoft mouse with my laptop screen so far away that I could cry.

Do they do really thin bluetooth keyboards? So I could G clamp it over my laptop keyboard and return to normal use?
