Yep, that is a classic bit of computer nerd comedy. I remember my first encounter with a MacIntosh. Our classroom was filled with Apple IIe machines, a rickety Tandy TRS-80, and one brand new MacIntosh. The lack of a 2nd mouse button drove me mad. The graphical interface was OK, but I didn't understand why it was monochrome, while the ancient IIe's did color. One false move usually resulted in lost work, as I wasn't familiar with the file Save dialogue- or windowed work areas for that matter! It seemed like a step backwards at the time- this went double for people my [then] age who weren't interested in much more than graphic apps and games.
