I only use one: the two finger scroll. I started using it about a year before I owned any apple laptop (I think it was on a viao?) And it bugs the crap out of me that my lenovo doesn't use it.

The two-finger back-forth fills me with rage b/c of how often I have lost unsaved work on the Internet by accidentally going back one page. <sigh>

Then again, I do the same thing with [backspace] on my windows box sometimes.

The worst is how "backspace" on a Google-Instant search page gives focus to the textbox and types a backspace rather than going Back in the history.
One of my many gripes about Google-Instant!
Ya, the two finger is a change in OSX Lion. In Snow Leopard it was three fingers and opposite (swipe left to go back, right to go forward).

I'm still getting used to the change to two fingers and going right to go back..
