A lot of complaints being posted in this thread have extremely simple
solutions - so simple that complaining is arguably more effort than
simply toggling a system setting and being done with it.

Also, people still use mouses? I'm somewhat joking, of course, but I
haven't used a mouse as my main input device in years. I find the
multi-touch track pad to be far superior in many ways. I still have an
old Logitech three-button mouse connected to my Mac Pro for playing FPS
games and so on - but that's the exception to the rule.

Probably because you were too busy bitching about it to entertain the
possibility that it could be resolved. Easier to just stop your feet and
claim it's "broken" right? ; )

Yes, they don't *have* to disappear.

Well I'm glad they didn't.

Disagree. I, too, wondered about that when I installed the next OS
version, forget which it was now, when the little arrows were no more.
Then I realised that, in fact, since I've been using a Mighty Mouse for
some years now, I never touch the arrows. I altered the System Prefs so
that the scroll bar is always there (even if empty), since having it
there is a useful visual indicator of whether there is content one has
to scroll for. With the Mighty Mouse I can move the pointer at the same
time as scrolling a document in two directions simultaneously. The only
time I touch the scroll bar with the mouse is when my MM needs cleaning
and doesn't scroll any more.

>I am particularly fond of.

Agreed (it's one reason I'm still on Office 2008). Equally, Apple's
attempt to remove Save As and give us an iOS-like experience on the Mac
was a big mistake. Giving us the possibility of saving Versions from
inside an app, OTOH, is a good idea, just as TM is a good idea. Simple
to set up, requires no attention, and simple to restore a file if
required.

You claim to know everything there is to know about Macs, yet you don't
know how to find scroll bar preferences... There's a search field at the
top of the System Preferences window, for crying out loud. I have my
doubts about anything you say.

System Preferences -> General

Under "Show scroll bars" click Always.

Thank you, Sir, I am obliged.

(P.S. Thanks also for the TextWrangler recommendation. That looks good,
too.)

competitors don't normally agree on how to do things, especially when
one is stealing from the other.
