 BTW, Don't take this (too :D) seriously. We are just kidding around with Ken C. It's a PC vs. Mac thing. That's all.

 I know, but you prob. do not want to know on which side of the line I stand.  I can not figure out how you Mac people do it with only one button on a mouse.:P:D:D:D

 Macs have a lifetime gaurantee?!  I gotta get in touch with Steve Jobs, he owes me some money!.  And yes, the 2 button mouse thing used to be a pain in the ass, but now I can buy any mouse I want. USB is a wonderful thing.  Ken makes a good point.  Back UP Your Hard Drive Weekly!!!  There are 2 kinds of people, those that have lost data in a drive crash, and those that will lose data in a drive crash.

 I am a Mac user who has never broken the seal on his 1-button rodent. I have always used a Macally scroll mouse or a Kensington. Today, Mac's are shipping with a what LOOKS like a one button, but is really a three-button mouse with unique scrolling capability.

 My calc. go to person has a mac but he only does the math and statistical work no CAD.  If you can use most business applications then I may look into it for a test station to see how it would work out.  My Sony work stations are having mother board and gremlins.  My IT person said we back up on 4 hrs. intervals.  The lic. we use are for specific programs and if we have to change versions the cost would be to great.  We are considering it but my staff just about had a cow.  These people will not even let the network operate on the internet.

 All of you are nuts........a roller ball mouse is the only way to go.   :cool:  :)

Anything else is a royal pain in the butt.  Just my opinion, of course.........:D

 Nuts are for squirrels! Yes, I have tried roller balls. And, I worked with a lady who would use nothing else but the big Kensington four-button roller ball. They do have their advantages. Depends a bit on what you do. The rest it personal preference. :)
