When you right-click with the mouse on a file you can copy it, but there is no option to cut it. I like moving things by cut them and paste them in another place, and cannot do it with the mouse. Even I cannot cut many times using the finder menu... |

I found a great little shareware app for my iBook that solves your problem. It's called Sidetrack and to me, it's well worth the $15 bucks. It lets you totally customize your trackpad, so I've got mine set so that the main button is a left click, a tap on the pad is a right click, and the right-hand side of the pad is now an up-and-down scroll bar. Works great, and solves the whole no right mouse issue.
The only thing that stops me going out today and buying a Power Book is the absence of a right mouse button. A scroll button too would be even better. I work a lot on the train and it is just not practical to plug in an external mouse on a crowded commuter train.
Until Apple fix that it is Linux on an Intel laptop and OSX on a Power Mac
