Look, I love Macs, for several reasons. I don't hate Windows - I would just rather be on a Mac. But those 3-button mice? The ones that just have one big button but it "knows" when you click on the second button side? They suck. They suck horribly. Because they don't know. They don't know that if I'm hitting something with my right hand so I reach over and grab the mouse with my left hand and try to right-click something, they think I'm still trying to left-click. I have these joyous moments of clicking around various points on the mouse at work trying to find the spot for the second button. And don't even get me started on those nubby little mouse wheels. I'll go to Radio Shack and buy a real goddamned two button mouse for $20, thank you.
They're not perfect, but I don't find them that bad. In fact, the main thing I find annoying about mine is that as a result of it I try and right click on the one button mice at uni.
And (while I know it's just taking the piss) I do disagree with the joke above - sure there's still some stuff Macs don't do so well, and some stuff that's harder to get hold of for them, but for the most part the are an entirely valid option and more suitable in certain sectors.
