The 1 button again....
Jeez.
likvid you mentioned
However i must admit that one-button mouse is stupid, Steve wake up!Why insisting with this stupid thing?
. Now I'm not picking on you but since it is mentioned so much from here to kingdom come I gotta say something about it.
roughly 15 years ago most users that were on a computer of no doubt loved the power of the command line. Since then most users are not programmers; back then there were more proportionately to end-users. Nowadays most of use use computers on a daily basis, and thus most be efficient due to workload or deadlines; so keyboard shortcuts are paramount for efficiency instead of the mouse. Remember in 1984 hardly any computer had a mouse, so shortcuts were important then to, but to end users, the mouse was a godsend. The mouse, obviously still is today, but I find myself, as a poweruser, inhibited by it so I rely mostly on shortcuts within using office products (word/excel/outlook--MS on PC). This brings me to my next point.
Ewinemiller, you mentioned that you had problems with shortcuts on the Mac compared to what you habitually used on PC. I had the same troubles in the first 4 days on the Mac - during the 3 months I had one -but quickly adjusted. You gotta stick to it. Once you do you might find it much more powerful than using MS OS on a PC.
Of lately, there is an increasing amount of programmers/coders on all platforms; which I guess is the reason for Apple's OS switch to Darwin underpinnings. Its hidden and rightfully so, because a poweruser like me - with no coding experience - will poke around thinking their king and end up royally F*&%$#g up their Mac.
Opinions vary and that's the beauty of the world, but try things out yourself - and you'll benefit from the experience.
