    Rant: Apple Mighty Mice don't default to right-click

    I just have to rant a bit. I'm in a lab setting at a university with 11 Intel iMacs. Throughout the years and as MacOS changes, Apple's default for the Mighty Mouse is to only left click.

    FIVE DAYS without my $3500 MBP!!! Apple service woes.

    Hi Guys, I am so sorry - but I am feeling defeated and needed to rant. I hope that you will allow me this here. So my pride and joy 13 inch spec'd up MacBook Pro that cost $3500 (not including apple care which I also purchased) decided the 'g' key was no longer needed, so it stopped working...

    So, here we go some time ago I commented on a video 'The iBook Guy' AKA 'The 8-Bit Guy' made titled 'PowerMac G5 - Is it Obsolete?' whereby I say "The PowerMac G5 quad is more powerful than the Mac Mini." and in his video he states that the Mac Mini Orignal is more powerful than the Power Mac G5...
