Have you been asleep?
Although Apple provide a single-button mouse as standard, they sell
multi-button mice - the Mighty Mouse.
Before they announced this, there were 3rd party mice that looked
Apple-like. I have one. Look for The Mouse at www.macmice.com
You can plug pretty well any usb mouse into a Mac running OSX and it
will work. Before I found The Mouse, I used a MS Intellimouse.
OSX supports 3-button/scroll wheel mice out of the box.
