Even Microsoft Windows allows you to reassign the mouse buttons. See the Control
Panel - Mouse
My Logitech mouse is a symetrical 3-button job that I can use in my native
Windows 3.1 or in my PCXware X-Windows (Unix) environment. Although I am a
"righty" I can see that the mouse is equally useful for either hand.
BTW, I use the right mouse button to load images in the Chameleon Web Browser,
does this mean that I am ambidigitous? <;)
