the new macbook pro doesn't have a mouse button, which kinda weird.. i think it works like the iphone where you can use two+ fingers to zoom in and drag stuff around (?) we need to get len back on here to explain this stuff! :)

Multi-Touch Trackpad

Constructed of smooth, touch-friendly, and wear-resistant glass, the new MacBook Pro trackpad has no button. It is the button. So you can click it anywhere
