I use MAGIC on color Suns.  I like it a lot, but I just wish that the mouse and
menus weren't so illogical and would work like like a mac mouse.

Two things I hate the most:

In scroll bars, you never know how much you are going to scroll.  If you want
to scrollone page, you have to guess where to click.

When you want to draw a rectangle, you click with one button aand then the
other.  Why can't we just drag???

I hope someone ports this to a Mac(how hard can it be on A/UX?), and I hope
they use the Mac interface guidelines.
