- Without gestures, you end up removing an existing dimension of
interfaces (the click). Think about how you would select text with

Remember the original mouse? To select a word: click at the beginning of it 
with the first button; click at the end of it with the THIRD button.
OUCH!

Personally I prefer to "mouse" with a trackpad - even on a desktop computer - 
unlike a mouse, the trackpad is always in the same place, never falls off the 
pad (or desk), requires relatively little motion.
