I must admit I really don't understand the Apple aversion to multi button mice. OK, it may be daunting to average users. But it should at least be available a a supported option. Even if you learn only one or two functions of a multi button mouse, it can be a boon to productivity. And if its too much for you, dont 'buy the option. A surprising oversight, imho

You just gotta read the comments at the bottom.

Slowly, I hope, these idiot bloggers/writers will be chased off the net. Wishful thinking, I guess, since we can't get rid of our own resident idiot.

SP -

Yet as I have already pointed out here, and some people did in their comments on that article, the MacBook allows you to register a right-click simply by resting two fingers on the trackpad as you click.

But PC users must have their extra button.
