Macs have supported two button mice for ages now. And the magic mouse has two "buttons" too. All you have to do is turn on the right click in your settings.

Shipping it disabled is one the weird Steve Jobs things. He seems to feel that for computer newbies two buttons might be confusing. Steve Jobs has always had weird ideas about mice and Apple has shipped some of the worst computer mice ever (anyone remember the hockey puck mouse?).

Cant say Steve. It just worked. There was no player pop up or anything. So on the Sirius site it says I need Flip4 Mac to play it, as MS no longer supports playback of the streaming content on a Mac. Okie dokie so I download the Flip it. Still dont work or at least cant hear anything but it does not say I need anything else now. So perhaps its playing and I dont have something turned on. Be darned if I know. I,m going to join the Mac forum.

Hey Doug,

Glad you got something you're happy with. By the way, my wife is Mad at you because this thread got me looking at new stuff and the gadget itch flared up.

Couldn't pass up the deals on the new Core i-5's from Dell!

I told her it was because I was helping you and saw how good the deal was!!!

He,he. Thats ok. I,m always in trouble anyways. That one looks good. I almost bought an identical on the Shopping Channel one night.

So far very happy with my purchase but then never owned a high end PC to compare with either. Lots of great features but a couple I miss or just not use to yet.

Best things so far and not just Mac related is the super speed. Plus cant believe how good my photo,s ,{and everyones coral pics}, look on the HD screen.

Several really neat features on Safari that I love also. Of course only a few days in, so have not explored many features. Reads Canreef good.
