Right clicks are possible on a mac with a 3rd party 3-button mouse, or 
by holding down Control while clicking a single button... in fact even 
Apple software these days makes extensive use of contextual menus though 
of course they don't call it right clicking, they call it 
control-clicking! ;-)

However, I agree, this is a silly Windows-specific question. It's also 
silly because even though I know how to do things like find the last 
modification date in all OSes, I couldn't tell you off the top of my 
head _how_ it's done. It's like asking a footballer which muscles he 
contracts in which order in order to kick the ball. "I dunno, I just do 
it!!!"
