Undo "natural" scrollingThe more I use OS X Lion, the better I like it.  The only feature I've had trouble with is the new scrolling behavior. I gave it a week to "sink in", but I just couldn't get used to it.  If you're having the same problem there's a simple method for turning it off.  Simply open System Preferences and select "Trackpad".  When visible, select "Scroll & Zoom" from the top toggle buttons.  Uncheck the top checkbox (as shown) and scrolling will return to the way it's been for the past twenty years or so.  I don't know what Apple is up to with this change. Maybe they're training us for some future super duper changes they have in store. I'll worry about it then. For now, I'm back to scrolling things the way I'm used to.
