Our Prayers Have Been Heard!
Finally! The moment we've all been waiting for! Apple has released a two-button scrollable mouse... Ladies and gentlemen... It's the MIGHTY MOUSE!
Ok, so what do I think about the Mighty Mouse..?
Well, I like it enough to further postpone the article on Jihadism...

Firstly, they've introduced the first EVER two-button Apple mouse. Or rather, a one button mouse, with different response accourding to which side of the mouse you press...
Apple patented the system earlier this year, so we kind of expected something like that.. Or at least we were hoping and praying for it...
Furthermore, we're given the answer to the question “Why doesn't apple do something about those plastic thinggys at the side of the mouse?”. Now, if you press them, you can have your mac configured to perform a certain action. Personally, I'd use the opportunity to have even more instant access to Dashboard...
And remember the trackball? I do. I used to love the trackballs... At least more than thos nipple-thinggys... But of course, then came the trackpad, and it all changed... But guess what?! THE TRACKBALL'S BACK!
Apple now uses a trackball-type of ball on the top of the mouse for scrolling. Genious...
The one thing I can point out for the time being is the cord... Err... Well, hopefully, Apple will introduce a Bluetooth-edition towards christmas... I know what I want for christmas..!
Update: Without having tried the mouse, I'll be very careful to be argue too much with Chris Seibold, but c'mon... This is a man who thinks the most probable application for a right mouse button is command-click... :P
As for the fact that it's all-white... I think this is an aestethic debate in the same genre as the 'is the iMac G5 butt ugly or not?'- Personally, I love the look of the mouse, I love the concept of having a two-button mouse that looks like a one-button mouse... The trackball probably needs some getting used to; but so did the one-button solution that mac provided untill now, and me, and a heck of a lot of other prev.win-users, has had to get used to that...
If you want to be conservative, go back to the circular-mouse from the old colored iMac-era... I just know the Mighty mouse would look great on top of my glass-desktop next to my Mac Mini and iBook G4... SO THERE!

The colored iMac-era was indeed a very exciting era. In my opinion we should get these at the school, or what do you think? But, insted of buying us expensive mouses. They ough to buy us some good teachers (for more information read the “krekling tea”-article.)
There are rumours saying one of the classes will get trud as teacher next year, the question is. Is that a good news?
That is *not* good news…
But here are the facts: Our principal has told me Elin is probably coming back… I also know that we’re going to get a new female teacher with NRK-background, accourding to some of my friends at the Stavanger city council.
