This get's annoying.

I hate it when things say:

right-click (or control-click on a Mac)

Apparently people don't know that you CAN right click on a Mac. Actually, all Apple mice have had a right and middle mouse button for the past 5 years at least! I guess this is just because people always think Mac's are so inferior to PC's, even though all the important things you can do on a PC you can do on a Mac. Maybe I'm a little too annoyed about things like this but I don't care. This just really annoys me.

No, they don't!  mad

Mac laptops have only one button. So you do have to control-click on mac laptops...  hmm

No they don't, you tap with both fingers to right click!

And here's proof that macs have right-clicking support:

the Apple Magic Mouse scroll down to see what I mean.

and here's more:

the normal Apple Mouse again, scroll down to see what I mean.

No I mean the new ones that have no actual button on them and they just have a touch-sensitive trackpad.

BTW, I think by one button, people mean, there's no separation between the buttons.

Re: This get's annoying.

I agree. Of course, I no longer am using a mac, so no more bother with that.

Re: This get's annoying.

It doesn't annoy me... While you can change the setting to make it a 1, 2, 3, and 5 button mouse, I still have mine on 1-button.

And sometimes I still use the Hockey Puck mouse from 1998 - http://www.russellheimlich.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/apple-hockey-puck-mouse.jpg

Despite it's lack of comfort, and how it's unusable, it's still kinda nostalgic.

Re: This get's annoying.

Some Macs have a one button mouse.
Some have two, three, or five.

Some people switch their Mac's mouse.

A mac is a PC, your thinking of Windows.
