I didn't realize that, I haven't had the opportunity to play with an Intel Mac yet, the newest I've used is a Quad core G5.
So it only took them 22 years and lessee 8(?) mouse revisions to get a two button mouse.... Still if thats the worst of my complaints. -Curt Date: Tue, 26 Dec 2006 19:19:11 -0500 From: "Ed Booher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Apple To: "Mercedes Discussion List" <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed On 12/26/06, Curt Raymond <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > but they still ship with a stinkin single button mouse. How they can design something as cool as their current mouse without having a second button baffles and annoys me. Incorrect, all Macs currently ship with a two button mouse with scroll wheel. (Except the Mac Mini which sells as a BYOKMD - Bring Your Own Keyboard Mouse Display, but the Mighty Mouse can be added as a Build to Order option.) In fact, I believe all Intel Macs have shipped with the Mighty Mouse, so they have been shipping a two button scroll wheel mouse for over a year now. However, the laptops still need you to Option Click for button two, though on a laptop your hands are on the keyboard with a finger on the trackpad, so that's not as hard to deal with.

Do any of you remember the 1980's soap opera on Friday night - Dallas. I remember as a kid (I was only 7 when it came out in 1979-80) I would watch it with my older brother and mother every Friday night. A friend of mine was talking about the show and he said he had the first 5 seasons on DVD. My wife and I immeadiately watched 1-2 episodes 3-4 times a week. She did not know who shot JR (before watching the episode). =20 =20 JR Ewing drove a 116 (280 SEL) in the first couple of seasons. Then he got a 126 (LWB). So, I think the plate I want is:=20 =20 "EWING 3" =20 =20 JR was the bad guy, but he always got what he wanted and he was such a compelling character. =20 =20 Donald H. Snook 1990 300SEL 133K=20
