Macs are definitely more expensive than a do-it-yourself box, obviously.2) Any USB 2-button mouse works instantaneously with any Mac and the latest Macs all come with the Mighty Mouse, which might have only 1 physical button, but still lets you right-click. Even the new MacBook and MacBook Pro series allow right-clicking.3) A third group of people who use Macs are those who like the interface better than Windows, see features in the Mac OS that they want and Windows doesn't have, and don't want to deal with spyware and viruses, but are still sane enough to acknowledge that all OSes have their positive and negative attributes and no one has created a perfect OS. Oh, and they're not die-hard computer gamers. Finally, they don't like being lumped into groups and their screen name on EN World is Enforcer.It's possible to like Macs without being a Linux person or drinking the Steve Jobs kool-aid. I agree about the market-share not attracting as many developers though, hence not nearly as many games, but will qualify this by stating that I can run every program I personally want or need on my Mac, and many of these came for free with the OS. To each his own, however.</blockquote>
