Thread: Advice for Apple

GET A MOUSE WITH TWO FREAKING BUTTONS.

At the university I going to study, they use macs. There is no sane reason why Not to have a right-mouse button. How much do they want to be 'original'? Freaking apple.

Omg I HATE that about apple. We have a few apple computers here and there at my university but they are always people's last choice. What do you have to do to right click on things... like press ctrl and click at the same time or something?

Yep.

Also, they do have a mouse with more buttons, it's just not the standard for some reason. Other than the mouse thing, I love Macs. :')

Really? Never seen it... why wouldn't it be standard, it's not like two buttons are the new cutting edge technology!

It's like they tried to simplify it but actually made it more complicated. I hate the feel of them as well, just too clumsy.


Although I do like that there are USB ports in the keyboards. That's good.

The keyboard ports were a good idea considering plugging in a mouse into the back of a computer can shorten the wire quite alot.

I hate the mouse, it seems very stupid, i also find Macs very annoying, i mean they come bundled with programs for idiots, and the actual operating system is quite complicated to get used to compared to windows, for example whenever i run iTunes i find that i accidentally click "Sort songs alphabetically" which i don't want to do, and what dya know, i can't undo it, i have to go fiddling around to sort them by date added, things are too cramped. There is too much you can click in iTunes and it applies for the other applications.

Actually, things are simplified. Most of the tasks you'd do with a right click can be done with the one button, for example instead of right clicking to save a picture, you juct click and drag to the folder you want. Much simpler.

And the Migty Mouse isn't standard because it is an over-complicated, cutting edge mouse. It's a shame they just don't make a middle ground the standard, I agree.

And LS, the operating system seems complicated in comparison on the first few uses, but so does Windows in comparison if you're used to OS X. After a short while you learn the ins and outs and it's stupidly easy to use in comparison. And what programs for idiots?
