Is complexity (and wearing this on the outside) an inherit part of open source design? FactoryJoe compares the OpenOfficeMouse (a mouse with 18 programmable buttons and even an analogue joystick) and the Apple Magic Mouse-"To me, the OpenOfficeMouse seems like such a typical product from the open source community." [Kroc: I honestly believed the OpenOfficeMouse to be a very clever satirical joke, the irony that it isn't suspends belief]

People that solve problems without hastle just can't handle the elite power of open source.
If you think 18 buttons is too many then you're probably retarded. I think every mouse should have 223 buttons but I could handle 1000.
Oh and Linux is passe, switching to OS 7 is the new way to look smart even if you are just dicking around.
