On trackpads and touch screens it is natural. When I got my first smartphone (which was an iPhone) I started to use it without even glancing at the manual, they're not even supplied with one. The first time I tried to scroll I naturally motioned in the same direction as Apple calls 'natural'.

I know what bugs me about natural direction of scrolling on a trackpad.

When I scroll on an iPhone, finger/cursor is an anchor that moves. You put your finger down, anchor whatever is underneath, and move it, and your cursor moves with it.

On a computer, scrolling has largely been replacing scrollbars! Where you anchor the scrollbar (that also appears) and you move the page with the scrollbar. Also, your mouse cursor doesn't move together with the page, and you have absolutely no visual feedback on how "natural" it is because everything is doing exactly the opposite of natural. While on a smart-phone, you have your finger. If you use three finger drag (like I do) it is natural, because you grab a page and you drag it up.

So whether it really is natural (considering two-finger scroll replaced dragging scrollbars, not draging pages!) or not, is still debatable imo.

Don't walk outside without your hat on. I heard the Sun's electromagnetic radiation is filling through the air too.

I already have had issues with a Mighty mouse and that way you describe didn't clean it! That case of mine, must have been worse because something hard had dropped in the scroll ball area, and it carved the ball, making it unusable now. I have written a thread about this issue and was asking how to replace the ball because this mouse is totally unusable and its a shame, all it needs is just a new track ball!

I remember that every iMac in the university library had these Mighty Mouse and they were all broken because of the scroll ball, whereas the Windows computers with ordinary mice just worked perfectly. It reinforced my belief that the Mighty Mouse wasn't a good and thought-out product and I wouldn't recommend to buy it.

The Magic Mouse is a bit different, it doesn't break like that. However, it is not very ergonomic and eats batteries like crazy. The Logitech wireless mice I used before were a lot more energy efficient. The Magic Mouse is a relatively expensive product and I can't say its well thought-out.
