I used the 2-button Microsoft mouse with Word on the PC for about a year.
It really wasn't any more difficult to get used to than Word's key
commands.

When I started using that square (original) Mac mouse, I hated it in
comparison to the rounded Microsoft PC mouse. But once I touched the
Mac's ADB mouse, that was the only one for me.  I guess I'm reacting
mostly to the size and shape for a female hand.

Now, however, the ADB mouse I'm using is beginning to stick. So if
the mouse had extra buttons, you could switch to another one when the
first one wears out :-).
