Apple "should" have taken care of this... Though I don't know if they did. With my Powerbook, albeit using a 3rd party track-pad add-on, I put two fingers down on the pad and then click the single button to perform a Right-Click. I much prefer this to trying to hit a different button.
For machines with a mouse it's moot of course - Apple's current mice are two button (though it doesn't "look" like they are).
I'd also prefer a virtualized solution so I can run just a couple of simple Windows apps within a window on my Mac OS desktop. But I'd also love to be able to throw Mac OS onto a cheap X86 box to run as a server (as an alternative to running Linux).
Gizmodo pointed out these two lines from the Boot Camp notes:
Quote:
Windows running on a Mac is like Windows running on a PC. That means it'll be subject to the same attacks that plague the Windows world. So be sure to keep it updated with the latest Microsoft Windows security fixes.
Macs use an ultra-modern industry standard technology called EFI to handle booting. Sadly, Windows XP, and even the upcoming Vista, are stuck in the 1980s with old-fashioned BIOS. But with Boot Camp, the Mac can operate smoothly in both centuries.
The second line is the best. hehe. Too bad it's only one of the many things one can use to belittle Vista and only one of the many "promised" features to go missing for the eventual OS release. Yeah, MS still say's they're releasing it if you can believe that.
