An interesting article has been making its way around the internet the past few days, titled "Top 10 Usability Highs Of Mac OS". Mac OS X indeed does some things very, very right, just like many other operating systems and graphical environments do some things very, very right. The issue with the list of the article in question is that many of the items on the list are not exactly examples of "Usability Highs" at all.

The lack of a right mouse button and scroll wheel only makes people that are USED TO having them less productive. Those of us who don't use them, even when on computers that have them, remain unconvinced and unhindered. You have just made yourself dependent on them - like someone that needs an automatic transmission to drive a car.
Thinking like this, one can say the same about computers.
