Hi Dane, On all Apple laptops, the button is physically only a click no matter where you press (left or right depends on your hand preferences in System Prefs), no secondary click. However, with MacBooks and MacBook Pros, you can tap with one finger to emulate a click, and two fingers to emulate a secondary click.
The Mighty mouse is actually different though, although it is physically one piece of plastic, left/right clicks are determined by which side of the mouse is being touched..leading to the annoying problem of having to lift a finger in order to do a right click, otherwise it won't register the click correctly. In any event with any mouse or touchpad, a regular click/tap combined with the control key will also do a secondary click. Not the option key, but the control key. cheers, jane On 7/15/07, Dane Trethowan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ok, I was talking with someone on Skype with a Macbook Pro this > morning and I was talking from my Ibook.
