   Has it ever occurred to you that maybe they say this because they feel   
   these things are very important to their computing experience. Apple's   
   refusal to switch to a 2 button mouse is downright silly considering   
   most people want them.  How much money could it possibly cost to add a   
   second button to the mouse or at least offer it as an option , so that   
   you don't have to run out and buy new mouse as soon as you get the   
   machine.  Furthermore it is easier to accomplish a lot of tasks with a   
   two button mouse.  To me, it is much less awkward to click the second   
   mouse button than to option-click.  If one-button mice were so great   
   don't you think that the aftermarket mouse makers would make them?   
   The desire for system upgrades  is strong , even in the Mac community   
   as evidenced by the Mac upgrade aftermarket manufacturers.   
   If life seems jolly rotten   
   There's something you've forgotten,   
   and thats to laugh and smile and dance and sing!
