I cannot speak for your target audience but according to my experience
(a) if people see a message box with a single button (probably with some
visual clue that it has focus) they will just press Enter or Esc to
make it go away, or
(b) if people see a button they will always use the pointer to click on
the button no matter what other, possibly much simpler, means may be
available to activate it.
This is a strict division with little between. There is no way to
migrate people from (b) to (a), you can try for years with no effect.
So targetting those between you may find you are targetting a group of
size zero.
