Do I need to enable gestures on the Trackpad?

[bobright]

Is there some place I can go to see what all the gestures do? Are they enabled by default? Can I switch the Trackpad to open things with a tap?

The only thing I can do as far as a gesture is use three fingers to swipe to my widgets. Lol

These sites show how to do a lot of the gestures:

Go into trackpad preferences.

Go into trackpad preferences.

The only thing I changed. Is tap instead of click!
Easier on the hands/fingers. Especially at my age!!

I am on the iPad right now but these look awesome. Are they enabled already?

I envisioined using something like the two finger swipe left or right to go back and forward in Safari pretty sweet.

Thanks guys yea going to fire up the bad boy in a minute, been trying to get all my data out of my PC to an external so haven't had a lot of time with it.

I definitely want the tap to click, my trackpad feels hard as it is new but would rather tap much less work.

I haven't got a Mac, I just Googled Apple Trackpad gestures, and the links were from some of the results. Here's a Google search showing the Apple Trackpad gestures results
