    Before I bought this laptop, I asked apple about 5 times if the new single right click on the trackpad is supported in Windows and they said yes. I buy the laptop, install windows.. and the only way to do a right click is to tap using three fingers.

    Am I missing something here? :(

    I am assuming that you are using a new unibody. I would double check your settings in the Boot Camp program you installed. You should be able to click using two finger, not three. I have never used a unibody with windows on it so they may in fact be different. But like I said double check the settings in the boot camp programs the drivers install. If that doesn't help then I am out of suggestions for you but i am sure some one here knows more. ;)

    I can click using two fingers.. I don't want to do that.. I want to do a single finger click on the bottom right corner .. Just like in OSX

    Oh, very sorry, I misunderstood. I honestly forgot about that new feature and am again sorry to admit I don't know anything about it, or at least whether it works in windows or not. Sorry to hear they may have misinformed you.
