The superiority of a multi-button mouse is such falicy it isn't even 
funny.  If you kept a log of how many left-clicks vs. how many 
right-clicks you might be amazed on how much of a difference there is.  
The fact is, Apple made it a single button to make the machine easier to 
use by all people.  I can only tell you the number of times I have 
accidently "mis-clicked" the wrong button.  And I have been using the Mac 
since its conception in '84.

Also, as far as the Getting of the Memory info, my suggestion is instead 
of going all the way to the File menu, my suggestion is using the old 
fashioned Command-I.  It'll take you to the right window to set Memory 
partitions.

Sorry about the bit of "Mouse-war (?)".
