Even MacOS X (yes, the Mac!) is going to have options for multi-button mice.
Even then, people still have the choce to keep their 1-button mouse if they
want. People have the final say in what they want, not some monolithic
corporation that doesn't really care about you, only about their wallets. If
only MacOS X was like that in other departments also. For example, presently
the GUI look is not easily configurable. Also (more as a side note), Apple
recently asked VA Linux to remove Mac-lookalike themes (Aqua, AquaX, eMac and
eMac-GTK) from their themes.org website.

Your mouse has moved. Windows must be rebooted to acknowledge this change.
