Not sure if you are using a mouse, but I know on my laptop- two fingers on the touchpad + left clicking = right clicking.

If you do that, the "eject" option appears in the popup menu.

That would be less scary than the "trash" option ;)

FYI, Ken, you can purchase an equally impressive PC for the same price as a Mac. Do the research. I gaurantee it.

Also, the nicer PC will do video and photography very nicely. Not as nicely as the Mac, but it will work for anything you would ever want.

MACs are good for the multimedia type deal... iffin you know how to use it for that. Other then that - a PC would be the place to go.

Alot of problems people tend to have with the PCs is they are user friendly for the not some techie person. A MAC is worse - I've got a degree in Computer Science and work in the field... We recently bought out a company that has MACs and use them day to day and now we have to learn how to use a MAC and support it..

Sounds Easy right? Wrong even with the power of google everything is backwards and upside down...

But in the end, its really just what you want.... If I was raised on MACs i'd be saying the opposite of what I just now said...

With Windows 7 on the way out... and being able to see it and play on it... I think there will be better reviews then what Vista got.... But then again... I've heard awesome things about vista and love it and then i've heard crappy things and people hate it... Just depends on if you know how to operate it.
