| In Safari, Control-click then select "Download Linked File". Or, alternatively, Option-click to download the file immediately. A right click on the Mac is Control-click.

| And if you decide to purchase a two button mouse, Mac OS X supports them so you can right click to your heart's content.

| Of course hold _down_ the control key while clicking. (Just want to make sure...)

| I have a two-button mouse with scroll-wheel on each of my Macs. As far as I can tell, any standard USB PC mouse will work. I've also got a "mighty mouse". The scroll-ball action is very smooth (until you get biscuit crumbs inside!)

| The differences between right button (or '<control>', for single button mouse) clicking and right button <option> (or '<control> <option>', for single button mouse) clicking are: the former saves the selected item to the browser's pre-defined 'Downloads' folder; whereas, the latter allows one to determine where to download the selected item to, via a navigation window. |
