And the one-key keyboard. Hardly any typing mistakes using that .... :-)

I learnt to use a mouse on a 3-button system - still, IMO, best for an 
expert, all-day user. But because neither Mac nor Win UIs support it 
well, there are few apps nowadays that take proper advantage of a third 
button, so it's not as big an advantage now as it used to be. (And I 
wouldn't give up my scroll wheel for it :-)
