I just hate having to move my hand off the keyboard whenever I want to select something and I'm not using Emacs. Are there desktop keyboards with integrated touchpads or trackballs or whatever?
-
At this point I'm certainly more USED TO the touchpad on my craptop.
-
For everything except gaming.

I prefer trackpads over mice by far.
-
I do.
Mice :piss2
-
Those shit give me cramps in my hand after using a while.

:bow trackpoints :bow2

touchpads are horrible.

He speaks the truth.
-
I had to use a trackpad exclusively for a few weeks once, it was inconvenient and limiting.
-
high sensitivity on my macbook's trackpad > any mouse
-
i am fundamentally incapable of using trackpads, although the clitnubs are fine

Type with one hand, problem solved! 8)

that's cause you probably have big sausage fingers
-
those little nubs are fucking dreadful
-

Same here. I bought an iMac to replace my powerbook, and I end up missing my trackpad.
-
mice > *

Nubs are kinda cool to use for some reason, touchpads are horrible.
My sticky nerdfingers make my eeePC almost unusable at some times.
-
now after using both i would give the slight nod to the touch pad (except for gaming, it's horrible at that).
-
I'd use my clitnub more if there was some scrolling functionality built into it

i have little tiny fingers :(

Thinkpad's do that.
-
Well you can't scroll with the clitnub exclusively you still need to press down on a button as well. Thinkpad's are like the anti-Macbooks :heart
-
I love the Thinkpad input setup, but the ones I've had/used were horribly failure-prone.
-
I have the low end version -it's not even a real Thinkpad but it's been sent back once and I have needed to reinstall Vista twice already.
2 tracking devices and 5 buttons though :hyper
-
Well for web-surfing, which I probably could've settled for the lowliest netbook for, a nice touchpad with side scroll functionality would be nice.
I tried logging into my WoW account just to check the Auction House with my bank character a day or so ago and just getting the 5-8 virtual yards while trying to navigate my character from the bank to the AH was painful just on the trackpad, a mouse is required
-
Touchpads >>> Mice in ANYTHING but gaming.
:borys
-
clitnubs
:rofl Never heard that name before.
-
Macbook glass trackpad >>>>>>>>>> pretty much everything in the whole world. i hate using other computers now. Sucks serious balls for games though, but I don't play them much on my macbook.
-
I use a mouse. It still has a ball in it and everything.
I have a tough time using trackpads as efficiently.

Someone has never used a Thinkpad :smug

I didn't like my trackpad at first, but two-finger swipe scrolling is so much nicer than mousewheel if you have to to it ALL DAY LONG.
Also, I am uncomfortable cleaning out the toejam-like mouseball cheese substance that collects on physical mouse balls. Ew.

trackpads suck fucking ass
either that or the one on mine is broken
which is highly possibly because i slap the shit out of them
