I should have remembered that one. I had one of the dual USB iBooks. (You know, the ones with the faulty logic board.)
I seem to buy on the year with defaults.
Got a tip for us?

So do current MBP gen owners get the Four Finger Touch?

confirmed.. in linux using the new bcm driver I can track 4 fingers and have set up a pretty insane number of gesture commands for use in maya and houdini as well as generic 1 finger tap. 2 finger tap and 3 finger tap (with drag)... l palm detecting works (and is configurable)...
as a side note, is there a new boot camp update? because thats another long standing issue with the 4,1 mbp... the touchpad drivers apple provides are unusable...
it's sad I'm using linux as a primary OS based solely on the trackpad support... I have and use a wacom and a mouse, but sometimes I don't have access/room for them, and it's a sad sad fact but houdini and maya run like crap on OS X.. I wish apple would let us turn off the quartz stuff for the interface while leaving opengl on... it messes up so many apps.
cheers
I don't know about you guys, but the trackpad on my MBP is barely large enough for four fingers. I'm sure it's a lot easier without the button on the new ones.
learn how to use Exposé!!!
set top left or right for Desktop and set bottom left or right for All Windows!!
you can use one finger, two fingers or 3 fingers, but i suggest 1 finger works best...
it's the same S**t!

That's how I have all mine set up. Personally, I like corners better than elaborate gestures.
Hmm...
As expected, the version of OS X on the Unibody MacBooks is different than the currently available OS X. Perhaps by the time 10.5.6 comes out, 4-finger MultiTouch may be available on original MultiTouch Macs?… or perhaps someone will hack it (similar to the FrontRow hacks a few years back?).
