This is a normal post i own, and am typing this, on my 17" macbook pro
and surprisingly i kinda agree with you... the single mousebutton thing is fooking rediculous in this day and age.

Sure, it was probably a goodish thing to attract technophobes back in 1990, but do they really think that 1 mousebutton, but 5 modifier keys, is simpler and more intuitive than a simple right click context menu?

although you can plug a 2 or even 5 button mouse in and they work fine.

mind you, i own mine because of the software and stability. logic pro sits on cubase's head and farts... plus i can use supercollider, neither are available for windows or linux... and i have the addition of looking cool!

This is a normal post I use a Microsoft mouse, but surely you can Option-click?
Tadaa! It's like a left mouse button.
