You've hit a good point there talking about habits. It's that too. Habits, subjectiveness and personal preference. That's what I reckon it's all about! And my main habit is to approach a computer like a man sneaking up on a cat - with both hands out and open and ready to grab. Therefore, with my lefty always being near the control button, I'll have to completely break my approach to become a pure two button user. That said, and in answer to your question about getting use to it... last night at a friends house with a one button mouse, I kept searching for the scroll wheel AND did try once or twice to correct my spelling with a right click. So we'll see where this goes / how bad it gets!

Sorry to butt back in, but I just wanted to make my poorly written point a little clearer. One button has always worked fine for me - I only wanted 2 for when my left hand was busy - and I love a scroll wheel purely because it makes web browsing s bit easier. Basically though I see any more than one button as an occasional lazy luxury. Whenever I'm using a Mac properly, with one hand over the keyboard and the other on the mouse, I have so many quick keys at my disposal that the benefit of one or two extra buttons at my right hand becomes almost redundant, especially when they require clicking followed by selecting from a list, then and clicking again - sorry - to slow. Right click Scroll down select copy Click copy Right click Scroll down select paste Click paste Zzzzzzz. Apple C Apple V Kerpow. But makken, you do make one point I strongly agree with - it is subjective. And with such subjectivity in mind, yes, I am saying I want a mouse that "looks nice" and I like the look of the Mighty. Also in all honestly I find the Mighty Mouse easy to use. Seriously! I can't quite believe some of the complaints in this tread about it being difficult. I must be really clever or something! But, if you disagree, then that's your prerogative. ... It's at this point when people agree to disagree that I feel lost about what to do next... normally though I either walk away slowly or change the subject... The other day I had a hire car with a stereo remote on the steering wheel. It had an effective 5 buttons and a scroll wheel. At first I though it was rubbish, but after about 20 miles I was using it like a limb. It was lovely. Same UK radio sucks. And that reminds me of when I was younger and had a walkman with a remote. One button, half way up the cable. Hit it once - Play. Hit it again - Stop. Hit it 2 times while playing - Fast-forward. 3 times - Rewind. Hold it down - Auto reverse. In the end the headphones broke and I never found the same model again. The end.
