I agree that a one button mouse is simpler and less likely to be used wrongly, but a three button mouse with a roller in the middle is really nice. I can quickly scroll web pages with the roller. For working on websites, I can right click on images to quickly view their properties in Mozilla. Sometimes people would prefer to trade simplicity for power. I'm glad Apple has built in contextual menus and the ability to add the mouse of choice to the OS. |
