jboy21 Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Ive just completed this mod and it works. It makes it such a more usable computer. Basically ive taken a standard logitech usb mouse, hacked it down to its very bare esstenitals, inserted inside the case along with a usb hub Ive tapped into the usb connection between the motherboard and bluetooth module, attached the hub and rerouted the cable for the bluetooth module to the hub. Ive placed a small piece of metal (which is attached and insulated on the L-bracket) underneath the right mouse button to make the contact. All the boards are located in a spare ram module slot, ive already got the maximum amount of ram on one stick so i didnt need it anyway.

aznguyen316 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 awesome job lol saw you on macbytes. I prefer two finger tap, though I don't know what the older MB's are capable of since I only used bootcamp in Unibody MB.

Signal64 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I just make the bottom right corner of the touchpad right click via touchpad preferences. Guess I'm missing the point of the mod.

jboy21 Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 I suppose there is ways around having an actual hardware right click button, like the two finger tap etc.... but I guess because i run macos, windows and linux on this laptop, plus the 'soft' right click methods have never really worked well for me as a pc user. Especially when i'm in a cramped datacentre and im trying to maneuver things around. plus the new macbooks have right click, im getting with the times here. gotta give me credit for trying a mac out as a pc user though.
