And see, here I used to like you.

I love my Mac. And if I wanna use Windows on the thing, I can. [url="http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Nova%20Development/40912/"]See?[/url]

Why yes, thank you.

Oh, wait, is that the Kool Aid that Bill sells, or the kind that Steve sells? There's a difference, you know. ;)

I think you'd need to buy a "mighty mouse" for that.

If you just plug in a regular mouse... with a right click button... its fine.

Also... video games are annoying to play w/o a mouse attached to your laptop anyways...
Surfing the web is a lot easier with the mac mouse pad though. a lot easier.

Do you mean a track pad? I always seem to make print bigger, when I use both fingers. But I just traded in my old MB Pro for the new one, so it's a learning curve.

I see you're in AK. I'm thinking of moving there. Tons of nursing jobs, and I have cousins who live there already. Woot!

I freakin' love the multitouch pad. Quite possibly the best designed thing that this laptop has. :))

I can't tell you how many times I've typed a response (maybe because I just go so fast, I don't know), and then do something with my fingers on the track pad, and wind up somehow going to the previous web page, thus erasing everything I've typed!

Obviously you're less coordinated than me. ;)

The only thing I do is sometimes I accidently erase a whole line when I only mean to backspace a word at a time (rather than a character at a time). The buttons are right beside each other, so sometimes I get them mixed up. Not a problem in a word processor, because I can just hit undo, but there's no undo button on the browser. That's bugged me once or twice.

You see, the Mac is designed for people with limited vocabulary who aren't likely to type anything at any great length that would risk being lost.
