Right click? Eugh!! :wink: :P

Why press one button when you can press two?

CMD - click?


Ctrl-click...
Though I rarely find that I need to get a context menu on OS X, most things are just there or access by keyboard shortcuts.

That's exactly the reason that right click is there :D

As someone who lives in front of a Mac, my left hand sits hovering over the modifier keys most of the time. I've even developed a kind of claw effect! So, hitting control is no problem while working, as it's in the same group as shift, option and command. Which is why I never needed a multi-button rodent.

I have grown accustomed to it now, and miss the scroll ball when I'm at home.

Meeces are obviously very personal things. Which is why it's nice now you can use any USB mouse you like with your Mac, unlike the olden days when they used a proprietary serial connector.

Definitely!

I do like my Logitech mice.
