What really drives me crazy is when a left handed person customizes
their mouse and switches the buttons. The left button becomes the
contextual button and the right button is for selecting.
Since it is all done in software there are no hints that the mouse is
different other than it is almost always left of the keyboard.

A number of times I have been called on to help "novice" computer
users with problems on their PCs. When I ask them to right click
on something, they invariable had never used the right mouse
button. From then on, every time I ask them to click on something,
they ask "right or left button?" There is a lot to be said for
simplicity. Apple did a lot of user testing to determine a one-
button mouse is less confusing, but as Richard points out, computer
novices are becoming more and more extinct...
