I thought you could buy 2 button Mac mice these days anyway... what gives?

What was the OPs reasoning for this request may I ask?

It should be possible to detect this by hooking their chat messages, then listening for an air of arrogance, superiority, and overbearing pride.

There could be lots of applications.. statistics being one.

The one I was thinking is having mac vs pc games for fun, when there's an equal amount of both players of course. It might be a while before that happens, but it's a possibility.

Can't think of much else at the moment, but I'm sure the community can come up with creative ideas based on this concept.
