3 button usb mice are about $30 if you want one. You can map things like
control-click to the right mouse button if you want, and whatever else
you want to do. Also, if you run a rootless x server on top of osx you
can use the 3 button mouse just like you'd use it on your linux/*bsd
machine.

The 'war on terror' is winding down and I'm about to get out of the air
force. Is anybody interested in hiring a computer geek with lots of unix
and hardware skills?
