Okay. I'm just going to start this conversation out by asking this: Why do people think that they can't right click? The apple mice do not have two separate buttons, yes, that is true. If you plug in -ANY- mouse with two separate buttons you will still be able to bring up the menu you get when you right click. You can also hold the apple key while clicking the main mouse and the right click menu will come up as well. |

If this is referring to what I posted in Maddogme's Fail thread, lol, I was picking on him for saying that in the chatbox. As a mac advocate, I was joking. Since this is now a Mac thread, I will say this: The ONLY thing I've ever had a problem with, is the volleyball of death. I don't know how to undo it, I always have to restart the machine, and I typically lose hours of work. I haven't had an issue since I upgrade to Snow Leopard, so it's not longer an issue. but in the past, it made me hate Macs altogether... |

why not use the new mouse that comes with macs, that has touch scrolling and right and left click, although it doesn't look it? But it is true, Macs have always behind the times when it comes to their mouses, and people want to stick with what comes with a mac. It's part of the simplicity of them. Also, as a comp tech guy, I can honestly say I dread when I have to work on macs, which is half our campus... |

I'm actually pretty surprised by this and the fact that you don't like them. for all my sound/video editing I either use simple iMovie for the easy stuff, and Final Cut Pro for finalizing and credits stuff. what do you prefer to use that is available for the PC? Vegas? List anything you use, becuase I would like to try out some other programs since this Macbook came with all of the stuff I use. and for the last time, Answer me damnit, lol, are you still working on that low budget movie? If so, how is it coming along? |

If so, how is it coming along? When I say working on a mac, I mean fixing it. I've had to remove viruses and airport is by far the worst wireless adapter. Not to mention the only way to really work to fix a mac is in single user mode, and if you don't need command prompt, you're SOL. When I edit, I use FCP, Livetype and garage band. |
