I don't have an Apple, I just know the newer ones support multiple taps, but I don't know when support became common. I do know this older than dirt Compaq I have acquired can do multiple taps, it is probably about 8 years old. As far as I am aware Apple used Synaptics pads just like everyone else, but I could be very wrong.
Every laptop I own can do multiple taps.
Acer 3680 (about 1 year old)
Acer 3003 (about 3 years old)
Dell C600 (about 6 years old)
Compaq 1600s (about 8 years old)
Everything runs Arch Linux, except the Compaq, it is i586(too old for Arch) and runs Windows 2000, I'll be giving that "gem" away soon, I know a student that can use it.
My touchpad section is pretty simple, I use basically the same one for all of my laptops. The tapping is basically the default, I did switch middle click and right click with the "TapButton" variable. It is normally 3 fingers for right click, 2 for middle click, I just switched them.
Code:
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "synaptics"
Identifier "TouchPad"
Option "SendCoreEvents"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
Option "RTCornerButton" "0"
Option "RBCornerButton" "0"
Option "LTCornerButton" "0"
Option "LBCornerButton" "0"
Option "TapButton2" "3"
Option "TapButton3" "2"
Option "HorizEdgeScroll" "0"
EndSection
