Mac OS X Leopard Server 10.5 (we tested both 10.5 and 10.5.1) has a lot of the new and interesting eye candy Apple has become known for, but it is more about supporting incremental user productivity software advances than it is about large scale platform or functional advances.'' http://www.networkworld.com/reviews/2007/121007-leopard-server-test.html?ts0hb=&story=ab5_leopard"

I came *THIS CLOSE* (holds fingers close together) to buying a Macbook Pro a month ago - it was the lack of a right mouse button and non-native support for Linux that killed it for me.

Something tells me your intent to buy the Macbook Pro wasnt put off by the lack of the right mouse button. Firstly the Macbook Pro doenst come with mouse because it's a notebook. Secondly, OSX supports just about any USB 2 and 3 button mice.
