The Apple mouse has a right-click which is configurable in the System
options. Apple's mouse looks like it has one button, but it actually
has 5: left, right, scroll wheel (more of a scroll ball) and then a
secondary left and right button.
Personally, I have opted for a Logitech mouse for my Mac and have never
used the Apple stock mouse, except for in Best Buy and Apple Stores.
As for the laptop, coming from a Mac guy who has had to use a Dell for
the past 2.5 years (at full time job), I recommend a MacBook Pro.
Stability-wise, there is not contest. The Dell crashes way more often
than my Mac and I run the Mac much harder. That might just be me; I
tend to run a lot of apps at once, that's how I like to work...be it on
a Mac or a PC.
