- derleth 16y agoUnless it ships with one it doesn't exist for most users, especially most Mac users.
- ugh 16y agoAll current Macs ship with mice or trackpads that support right clicking.
- derleth 16y agoI've used an iMac that shipped with Snow Leopard and it shipped with a single-button mouse.
- ugh 16y agoCheck System Preferences. It’s off by default. Mice that support right clicking have been shipping with every Mac since 2005, trackpads that support right clicking with every Mac since 2006 or so.

- ugh 16y agoYou were completely wrong and I corrected you. That’s it. I was not commenting on the wiseness of not enabling the right click by default.
- vacri 16y agoSo... when I help someone out and need to right click, it's not an annoyance to either alter their settings or have to use two hands? The 'single button interface' demand is silly - all it does is force people to use modifier keys to get the functionality they need. How this is different to just enabling right-click I'll never know.
