  • I'm a recent switcher from the Linux/Windows world, and personally, I do not miss my right-click at all. After trying out the Mighty Mouse, I am not sure whether I care about the right-click, and the squeeze-click, but the nipple is a welcome addition. Scrolling with it feels fantastic. And I love how it still technically has only one clicker. Too bad I have a Powerbook, with its built-in scrolly touchpad. Otherwise I might have bought a Mighty Mouse. I'll sit it out and wait for a Bluetooth version.

    The Mouse Roars
  • 1) Tiger allows you to swap command and control in the preferences pane. 2) cmd-S 3) After this article was written, Apple has addressed this with the Mighty Mouse. But I'm a recent switcher and haven't found the need for the right-click. Not once. I rather like 1-button, in fact. 4) This is arguably for the sake of context, because you're more likely to recognize a folder if it contains certain files you know are in that folder. 5) Folders at the top could be useful. Or maybe it depends on how you've organized your file structure. 6) No idea. As a recent switcher from the Linux/Windows world, I have found not a single gripe about OSX that I wouldn't have on another operating system. OSX really works like a dream.

  • I buy almost all of my music in CD form. Still little or no DRM on CD music.

    7 Flavors of Pain
  • I somehow doubt that Apple would ever make make a Newton or iPod/vPod that rolls up in the next few years. It just seems like something Apple wouldn't do. Hinged, maybe. I think, if Apple starts using Phillips' polymer displays, the result will just be thinner electronics, not roll-up.
