Middle-Clicking on the Asus Eee PC

jangelo of My Asus Eee PC blog has discovered that by clicking both the left and right buttons of the touchpad you can simulate a middle-click even if the Asus Eee PC's touchpad has a one piece bar. You just have to click as far away as from the center as possible. But you also need to be careful and not click too hard as this might break the bar.

Middle-click is especially useful in Firefox for performing one-click tab closures and for copying and pasting across windows, especially when using the Linux terminal/console.

Update: I tried performing the middle click but was only successful once. Maybe there is an art to mastering it. :(
