now who's got the shoe fetish, cobblers indeed.  The apple professional
mouse is a thing of beauty, it also fits in almost every bodies hand due
to it's nice size, and (with a single button interface) it is very
servicable.  The MacOS is a single button application and so are almost
all the apps that run on it so this mouse is perfect in almost everyway
for that system.  It's bollocks under linux so you have to have an ugly
and possibly less comfortable mouse for linux.
