I'm quoting you on this. The amazingly well thought of OSX's UI doesn't hide any options from the user behind endless layers of right-clicks through the menues. This frees up an extra button for me to take advantage of. I've actually linked it to Exposé  |

bound? |

yes. I'm shocked that Boo-chan didn't catch that |

Well, I was thinking about it, and although bound did seem more appropriate/proper, I chose binded to emphasize the 'bind' although I wasn't sure either way... Seem like two completely different words to me, but that's just me. *edit* I find this an appropriate time to say that I make my posts as legible as possible, but most of the time I just write what comes to mind. This is why I sometimes write run on sentences and other grammatical blasphemies  . |

............ROFL Kind of relatedly, my father and I were discussing grammar over dinner today XD Apparently the writing ability of my roomates are below par for university students XD He refused to say anything about my English skills, though.... |

Actually in this case I'm not sure which one is more accurate, although I think binded is. However, I try to only correct others when I'm pretty sure that I am actually correct... I also don't seem to be able to edit other people's posts for some reason  |

Why does boo-chan have 18 posts? (binded seems wrong; bound is almost certainly correct) |

Satisfying, that. Might it not have been worthwhile to keep it if for no other reason that having an "emergency" mouse in the event that the one you replaced it with turned out to be a lemon? |

Too late for that.
Fortunately, I live like 2 minutes away from a Futureshop like store. |

A lemon normal mouse would be better than a mint-condition "mighty mouse". Mighty mouse is the corniest name for a product ever, btw. |

I'd prefer a broken touchpad over a mighty mouse. I can't get over how terrible a product it is. |

In one button mode, or two button mode? |
|
| Author: | wtd [ Sat Dec 17, 2005 11:20 pm ] |

Two button mode. I've always liked the ergonomics of Apple's mice, since they encourage and reward people who use their fingertips, rather than wrapping their whole hand around the thing. |

| Author: | Martin [ Sun Dec 18, 2005 7:36 am ] |

It wasn't that. It was the not being able to left/right click if your right/left finger is on the mouse. |
|
| Author: | wtd [ Sun Dec 18, 2005 3:36 pm ] |
| Post subject: | |
Yes. That's easier to deal with if your a fingertip mouser. |

Because posts in [GD] and [OT] don't count. Search for all of his posts for a more accurate level of activity. |

I thought posts in General Discussion counted toward post count, but just didn't give you bits? Dang it, I can never keep track of all these things  |
|
| Author: | Martin [ Mon Dec 19, 2005 7:14 pm ] |

Yeah, the post count thing is strange. I have 3112 posts total (although some are in admin forums, so they won't show in a post search). 3113 now. |

Perhaps you should start spamming noobs with their "How long will this take" and "I need help" and "turing sucks" topics |

Other than that 66 on your counter. You could always start writing tutorials for Java! |
