I have a logitech MX500 and I don't have to use the "emulate3buttons" option
to have three button functionality. My 3rd/middle button works fine without
needing this option set. To my understanding the only time you need to
emulate3buttons is A) if you have 2 button mouse and want to have access to
the 3rd button function, or B) if for some strange reason your 3 button isn't
working properly then it is a possible workaround,

Cheers, Curtis. ;)
