I'd agree with that. Well basically it's because it's what I've also been saying!

All the macs that come with mice currently come with mice that have four buttons. Left, right, squeeze (which is, in fairness, the worst idea for a mouse button ever) and the mouse ball on the top is a button too.

The laptops, you either tap with two fingers, or hold two fingers on the trackpad and click the mouse button, to get a right click.

So yah boo sucks

A lot of Apple hardware is from extremes. Their latest keyboard (same as the one I'm typing on now) is fantastic - Probably the best one I've ever used. However that mighty mouse thing is awful.

I really like the wired mighty mouse, I've never had a problem with them. The bluetooth ones, however, are awful. It's totally the wrong shape for a heavyish wireless mouse... it's like a really heavy bar of soap! And the right click doesn't work properly. Gash.
