With so many jobs (namely, ours) that have people sitting at computers all day, it’s no wonder that the clicking noise that little mouse makes drives some people up the wall. If you’d prefer to make the clicking come to an end, Nexus has come to the rescue with the new Silent Mouse ($28) that makes little to no noise as you go about your day. The 2.4G wireless optical mouse connects to your computer and uses patented Silent Switch technology to keep the mouse seen but not heard. The ergonomic mouse is suitable for both desktop and laptop use and has a scroller that is also as quiet as possible. The mouse also uses 1000/1600 DPI selection for alternating between speed when necessary and slower accuracy. The sleek mouse is available in black with a rubberized finish or white with a glossy finish, for those who want a silent upgrade to their Apple configuration. The Nexus Silent Mouse seems like a pretty handy design for those who work in quiet environments or who want to banish the incessant clicking. Now if only they made a silent keyboard.

Beyond the Boundary Wire: How Yardcare and the New N1600PRO are Leading the Robotic Mower Revolution
With automated routes and advanced mapping, Yardcare N1600 PRO robot lawn mower is made to meet modern lifestyle with smart precision.
Grass, Lawn, Plant

The weekend morning dread is a real situation, and homeowners know it pretty well. I've often woken up with the realization that the next few hours will be spent toiling with the hum of a petrol engine machine and hours of pushing a heavy mower around the yard. We’ve all been there, sweating under the sun, in our quest to achieve a green carpet that looks fine at best, but rarely ever achieves the work done by an expert. A fully automated solution should address all those problems, but finding a reliable one isn't a cakewalk.

The hassles of setting up boundary wire, mastering the navigation, and requiring constant manual supervision don't really sound like an autonomous dream. But tech is finally catching up, and one of its best specimens is Yardcare’s N1600PRO. The latest from Yardcare ensures that lawn care no longer means non-stop manual effort, but relaxed efficiency. If you're a homeowner who is increasingly leaning toward automation to take care of your yard space, Yardcare is here to help you make that smart shift with the N1600PRO.
