To the OP, the Macbooks do have right click, you just place two fingers on the touchpad. You can scroll that way too. Just drag both fingers down or across the pad, and it acts like a mouse wheel. I like it much better then my PC laptops (I have a few).

I dual-boot Ubuntu 8.04 Alpha-1 and Windows XP Pro SP2. Macs are overpriced, just like all Apple products.

Go look at the specs of a MacBook, and then go to Dell and price out the same specs. You will find the Dell cost more. The Mac are not overpriced for what you get, they just don't offer a low-end model.

I was a long time Mac hater. Once Unix became their underlying OS, and Intel there CPU, I bought one. I got it mainly to play with the OS, and then wipe it for XP/Linux (I just wanted the hardware, as it was far better than any other PC laptop I could find). After playing with the OS and learning it, I find it far better than Windows for most everything.
