(An Apple employee told me this.) Please be careful about what you say "Apple Knows". 1) Apple has over 10,00 people and we all don't always agree. :-) 2) People are allowed to have their own opinions. 3) I've yet to see it mentioned in the user interface guidelines. 4) the multi-button mouse debate depends on which UI "expert" you talk to. 5) Have you ever witnessed a novice computer user fighting a multi-button mouse, and what make it really fun is when there no "standard" way of knowing what a button combination will do in a given app. Apple knows nothing, groups of people at Apple express opinions and some of the better opinions we work into products. -- daveo@apple.com David M.
