The main thing holding me back from buying rmbp

Hi,

I have one major problem with osx in general, it's using an external mouse. I could use the trackpad for casual use, but I need a mouse for more work related stuff. It already annoys me that you can't have natural scrolling for trackpad, and reverse scrolling (actually normal scrolling) for mouse, seperately. But the worst is the accelerated scrolling, where 1 slow scroll moves down the page with 1 pixel, but one fast scroll, takes you down the whole page. And the last annoying thing is when I do have reversed scrolling on, volume control is still upside down, so scrolling up silences the sound, which is not right at all.

Oh, I don't like the apple mouse, so that's no option for me.

 

I did. The whole post was about me having problems with an external mouse.

Well yeah, I'd also like to switch but I find mouse important. I know there is a program to separate mouse and trackpad scrolling, but that leaves me with 2 problems:
Accelerated scrolling on mouse
Reversed volume scrolling when everthing else is normal on mouse

 

It does indeed solve one of my two problems, which is something!
And I don't want to come over as a whiner, but that still leaves me with 2 problems. Sorry for complaining though. It's just that I don't want to regret a purchase.

 

So I mention I don't like how it handles an external mouse, while searching for a solution, and you claim I don't like a complete operating system? Then I don't like any operating system. I hate all, and all have problems that annoy me...
I'm just trying to get the best OS at the moment for my needs, no need to get defensive..

 

That's actually because I'm afraid I can't get used to it and might regret my purchase.

But maybe I should try to get used to it. If I can't within 14 days, I can always send it back I guess.

 

Op here, I'd like to respond to some comments in general.

I went to test the mbp again with my mouse, and I think I'll get used to the accelated scrolling. And I guess adjusting volume will also be no problem to do with the keyboard. And I can indeed download a program to do some fixing as well.
So it's good that I can adept, and I will of course, it was just a little bridge to cross. So thank you all for the comments!!

However I have one small question left. If you install parallels with windows 8, will mouse settings transfer, or will the mouse act differently in windows?
