I appreciate the input ! For now I use the default drivers under Leopard and the "mighty mouse" that comes with an iMac. I'll look into third party software for tweaking mousebehaviour, thanks.

Thanks for showing me the way !

Contextual rightclick would open a list of possible commands. Manageable settings would be nice, too. Is this a possible ruby ?

Has anyone found a way to make the scrollwheel activate the "orbit" command ?
At work I use a windows version where this works.

I recommend the 24" beast to all my friends. Just buy the basic one at an Applestore and order 4GB RAM somewhere online. Somehow the scrollnipple on the included mouse doesn't initiate the orbit command under Leopard. That's all the irritation I could find.

nice tool ! respect.
