Be that as it may, it's still not, in my experience, a good mouse. Nifty idea, cool looking design, but I found the ergonomics of it really uncomfortable. It's just awkward trying to move the thing around at all compared to other mice, and the "2 buttons masquerading as 1" thing remains an unpredictable annoyance. I've wished for a long time now that Apple would just give up, admit their mistake, and accept that 2 button mice are the superior option.
- eru 16y agoI like my 3 button mouse. At least how the third button is used in X.
- powrtoch 16y agoDunno why you were downvoted, my fault for not clarifying: I just meant 2 buttons is superior to 1. I make no claims about other button counts.
- eru 16y agoI agree. And for some users three buttons is even better than two.
- moe 16y agoSome people (Gamers, CAD engineers) wouldn't even consider a mouse with less than 4 buttons.
- weaksauce 16y agoI am both a gamer and a CAD user. I love my magicmouse though as I spend a lot of time using the internet and scrolling on the magicmouse is amazing. I have jitouch + magicprefs to enable tap/swipe gestures and middle mouse button. if I need to do some hard core gaming I will just use a different mouse. Gaming with the mm is actually good enough for government work most of the time.

The number of revisions on mice that Apple has produced that actually are multi-button mouse, obfuscated under a pseudo-one-button form factor is simply mind-boggling. Just put a second stupid button on the darn thing. I used to do a lot of work with some pre-press design bureaus that were all mac shops. Without fail, every single one of their Macs had either a logitech mouse or a microsoft mouse hooked up to them. When I asked them about it they just said that whenever they bought a new machine they just tossed out whatever Apple had packaged and replaced it with one of those two mice vendors as company policy.
