When is Apple going to come out with a two-button mouse? Mac users have been asking that question for so long that Apple’s introduction of the multi-button Mighty Mouse (with an omnidirectional scroll ball) is almost an anticlimax. If users seriousl...

Scroll ball is an interesting new concept; beautiful design; matches Macs; ambidextrous.

Force-sensing button is difficult to use; poor ergonomic design; somewhat limited driver options.

Until this mouse comes supplied with new Macs – and Apple isn’t saying whether it will – you will pay for the privilege of using an Apple-designed mouse that is, well, still just a mouse, and not the most graceful one I’ve ever use...

When I found out Apple had released a two-button mouse, I had to check the calendar to make sure it wasn’t April. After fighting the two-button trend for more than 20 years, Apple gave in this summer and introduced the Mighty Mouse, which is a two-b...

For general use, the Mighty Mouse is a winner and we are using it as our routine mouse. Scrolling in windows is a snap and it makes Dashboard and Expose´ much more useable. We can not, however, recommend it for playing 3D games. Hopefully, Apple will begin including Mighty Mouse with it\'s desktop Power Macs, iMacs and eMacs. We would also like to see a Bluetooth wireless v...

It’s shocking but true: Apple has finally shipped a two-button mouse. Unfortunately, the company’s first foray into bi-button rodentia can only be considered a flop. The problem lies in the way the “buttons” work. You see, there aren’t multiple buttons...

The most inane debate of all time has to be the Apple multi button mouse tête-à-tête. For years people argued back and forth about the wisdom of Apple either shipping or failing to ship a multi button mouse. Surprisingly the argument could get quit...

In the 80s and the early 90s I was raving about the superiority of the single button mouse. User studies had showed that people got confused when using a mouse with more than one button, and that double-click and click and drag were far easier for p...
