Mac... doesn't have... double click?

Okay, I think you're looking for right-click. And yes, Macs do have it, as long as you get a real mouse and not one of those stupid overpriced Apple mice. I recommend an inexpensive Kensington like this one, for example, but there are plenty of brands that make Mac-compatible mice.

If you are stuck with a one-button mouse, simply hold the Control key and click on something to get a menu with more options.

There's also an option in System Preferences (aka Control Panel in windows language) that lets you set your desktop to cycle through all the images in a folder you specify, at a speed you specify (15 or 30 seconds at minimum, every time you boot at maximum).

get a mouse w/ a right click, or press the ctrl + mouse. Note that u need to press the apple button instead of ctrl to copy, paste, save, and so on

again, ctrl + mouse to save as, or click the image and drag

The punchline of that video is that despite the whole rant, he still edited it on a Macintosh. And by the way, 99% of the things he mentioned were fixed with the release of OS X years ago. But sure, keep reposting the video a million times on all your favorite message boards where all the PC fanboys can jack off to pictures of the windows logo while ignoring things like BSoD, incompatible drivers, defragging, internet explorer and security holes.

Same. Lol. Mac is good at editing, I will never say it isnt. Just how this guy describes his problems are funny to me. I've posted this thing once. I hate windows, and if sro would run on my linux box, I would play there.
