Apparently people have found that the earlier MacBooks from Apple also support 3/4 finger gestures or "multi-touch" by installing a couple files from the MacBook Air installer, editing a .plist preference file and then fixing permissions.... Can this hack be added to this project to give early MacBook users full Multi-touch support? Is it also possible that the PowerBooks which support absolute mode scrolling could also get multi-touch support too?
