This works on my Toshiba laptop with Windows 7, not sure about Macs but I would imagine this would work with most, if not all, computers (laptops or desktops) that have a usb port. I plugged this product in, Windows 7 downloaded the driver, and I was in action.

Brand should be irrelevant, instead it might vary by operating system, i.e. Windows, Apple or Linux. I use Linux myself and it just works. Period. It should also work with any Windows version, but you may need to install a driver if the version is prior to WinXP. I don't know much about Apple, but unless Apple requires an Apple-only mouse, it should work fine.

As far as I know, any Windows computer since it uses the built in drivers from Windows. For other operating systems , I don't know since I don't use anything but Windows.

Any computer with a USB port.

I HAVE A TOSHIBA C655.

Anything with a USB port.

ANY WITH USB PORT

should be any laptop with USB... I've used it on both Linux and Windows, as well as on a newer DELL laptop, a very old Sony Vaio, and a custom desktop pc.

I would imagine this mouse will work with any brand laptop that accepts USB compatible devices (basically if your laptop has a USB port, the mouse should work).

It has a square (rectangular, actually) plug. That is, it is for a USB connection. The round plugs are for PS/2 connections. You will not need a PS/2 plug if your computer has an available USB port. In other words, you can plug a USB mouse, like this one, into a computer that has a PS/2 port and use it just fine if it has a USB port that you can use exclusively for the mouse. Most computers of the last 10 years or more will have USB ports on them, so chances are you can use this mouse just fine.

this mouse has a square flat plug on the end of it.

Hello lvsmileyfaces,
This is a USB cord connection, aka the flat kind. It doesnt plug into the round PS/2 mouse port. I believe you can buy a USB to PS/2 (flat to round) converter, but after doing a quick search I couldn't readily find one.

the usb connector is square and flat

It has a square flat plug.

It is a USB mouse which means it has what you call the square flat plug. There are adapters to make it fit the PS/2 port on older computers (the round plug) but it does not come with one.

No it is not round. This mouse works in any USB port.

it is a USB mouse, therefore it has a square flat plug. I think you need to buy some more USB ports for your computer. They are cheap and easy to install.

It has a USB connection...you are looking for a PS2 connection. Good luck finding that...better to use an adapter.

THE ONE I ORDERED HAS A FLAT PLUG.

DPI for Dots Per Inch - see more here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dots_per_inch

According to the Logitech website, M100 has 1000 dpi

1000 DPI

See:
http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/mouse-m100?crid=7

High-definition optical tracking
You’ll enjoy responsive, smooth cursor control and precise tracking and easy text selection thanks to high-definition optical tracking (1000 dpi).

The Logitech M100 mouse has a higher than normal DPI spec of 1000. Many/most mice have a DPI of 800. That should make the M100 track better, but most folks will be unable to tell the difference. It like the difference between a "normal" CD and a super audio CD. If you can hear the difference you've got darned good ears.

Back to the M100 ...

I just had an M100 go bad on me after only 11 months. This REALLY shakes my confidence in Logitech. The thing has a 3 year warranty, but the cost to mail the mouse back to Logitech is what the mouse costs. Useless ...

"high-definition tracking at 1000 DPI" according to the logitech website

yes

Theoretically, it should, if you have an USB port and install the driver.

Some mice can be used on both PS/2 and USB ports but the mouse's own internal logic (its interface) must sense the difference and change to the appropriate hardware protocol for the current connection type. You cannot magically change a USB-only mouse to work on a PS/2 port (except by using an expensive active hardware protocol converter - the passive ones won't work).

The M100 is a USB-only mouse. According to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258773, Windows 98/ME include USB drivers; however, I would still recommend using a PS/2 mouse for that OS. Windows 95 doesn't include USB support except for OEM versions; see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/253756/EN-US. I don't recall that the M100 came with USB drivers for Windows 95. The M100's specifications (http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/mouse-m100?crid=7) tell you which versions of Windows are supported. Like I said, you should stick with a PS/2 mouse (which also means a corded one), or one that is designed with the interface switching to use it on either PS/2 or USB, when using a 9x-based version of Windows. Because USB has been available for a long time with about 15 years worth of Windows versions, it is getting harder to find a PS2/USB mouse but they are out there, like the M110 (http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/6608?crid=7).

It will work with any computer having USB inputs.

Yes I think so.

Well, the mouse has a switch in center of the wheel, which the application can use for whatever purpose. Some applications even allow you to define what happens when you click there.

Yes.

yes works great

yes

Bottom line - Yes. Your question made me chuckle. To me, it's like asking, "Will my light switch work if use 100 watt bulbs?"

Yes.

Windows 8 should already have the drive for this mouse. If not, you can easily download and install it.

yepers

the mouse can be compatiable but some of the buttons may not work
