Multi-button mice are fully supported by the OS, they just aren't supplied as standard.

Well lets just say that they should be. I tried using the one button mouse they supplied my mom with at work. I mean come on, the whole mouse is the one button? talk about carpal tunnel.

That was under Mac OS 9, where it won't prompt you to install the driver - you need to do that yourself and for legacy reasons, the approach to managing printers is very different to what you'd be used to under Windows

Okay, that's probably true. But then setting it up was difficult because the printer setup was buried in an unintuitive location, set apart from the rest of the settings.

I sure hope OSX is all that everyone's saying it is. As far as 9 goes, I disliked it very much.

But I have taken the leap and promoted the ipod, just like most people here. My dad received his this week and can't get over how nice and small it is.
