When you set notap for the trackpad you will get tired after a while of 
wokring with the relativly heavy single mouse button (at least on a 
PowerBook). An alternative with setting notap, is that you set F10 to mouse 
button 1, like probably most people have F11 as mouse 2 and F12 as mouse 3. 
This is especially handy when you are left handed.
