It's a bit of gamer posturing that I could do without. Razer is sending a clear message to those with Macs that they're second-class users. What started as a minor annoyance has become downright obnoxious. I've got a dual boot setup and the software refused to recognize the Ornata V2 plugged in to the USB port. Not even side-loading Windows on your Mac works for Synapse 3. It's a shame, because there are new options for ambient awareness that I would have loved to try out. It’s clear that Razer isn't interested in giving its Mac fans access to the plethora of configuration profiles and lighting effects that Windows fans enjoy. The "beta" has been going on for years at this point. But while in beta, there isn't a Mac-compatible version of the Razer Synapse 3 software. Sure, you can plug in the Ornata V2 and use it like a normal keyboard (albeit with a slightly different key configuration). The one annoying thing about the Ornata V2? Total lack of software support for the Mac. It clicks on to the bottom of the keyboard magnetically, so it's easy to remove as well. The plush leatherette cushion makes all-day-typing completely comfortable. The Ornata V2 still comes with one of the best wrist rests I've encountered in the industry.
