You can use just about any mouse you want with Apple computers. Doesn't have to be one button :dunno:

And you are correct in saying "mouses" when referring to computer mouses. You only say mice when you refer to the animal.

Uhh there is a middle button which acts as a scroll as well as a center click and it also has sensors on both side to detect a right click and left click. they just don't seperate the two buttons and it is a lot more convenient than one would expect

i love the scroll it's like a mini track ball... you can scroll vertical as well and horizontal.
