The forefront of innovation! :p

Finally, you can now play UT 2004 on a Mac without having to buy another mouse than the one from Apple :)
-
I wasn't expecting this to happen for another fifty years!
So when will they figure out how to get it to make a cup of coffee as well? :P

Actually, I like the one-button mouse. My only complaint is that it lacks a scroll wheel.
-
I have the same opinion of the Steve Jobs Zero-Button Mouse(tm). The Mac I use at school has one.
-
I actually prefer one button when using a laptop. When I use friends' PC laptops I always accidently right click since I'm used to having my thumb positioned at the bottom-center of the trackpad on my Mac.
The only reason I use a multi-button mouse on my desktop is for gaming -- and probably the scroll wheel nowadays. One has to remember that OS X, and Mac applications, have been designed with one mouse button in mind -- so it's not like you're missing out on much.

i think apple should have their next computer have not only no buttons on the mouse, but no keys on the keyboard either.
in fact they could do away with the mouse and just have one huge button taking up the whole keyboard.
then it really would be as easy to use as a toaster.

Obviously nobody's been paying attention to this (http://www.virtual-laser-keyboard.com/). It's only a matter of time (and sales figures) before this gets ported drivers, though I'd suspect it captures raw keystrokes much like a traditional keyboard and could thus be interpreted through similar processes. What was that about no keys? ;)

I hope there's an option to change the Windows button into :tux: :)
-
that's mental! i think it's take me a while to get used to, but the idea is great! (and yes, i REALLY wouldn't like it if i had to put up with a non-changeable laser projected windows key!)
-
I could take or leave a two button mouse, my iBook's trackpad has one button, and my iMac (once it gets here) will have the standard Apple one button-mouse. :)

At least a laser keyboard dosnt get sticky! ;)

Unless you like that kind of thing... (for future reference, I mean cafeteria tables, not... um, that other thing. ;))

There was one on ThinkGeek (sorry I've lost the link) that is a massive trackpad. But the tap-detection makes it work like a keyboard and mouse in one. THAT would be really cool...

Well, I guess a two buttong mouse will make it easier for me to play Warcraft III/Starcraft.
