It has a trackpoint mouse like the Thinkpads <3


The had to off-center the trackpad to match the trackpoint in order to fit those keys by the left. I'm a very big fan of page up and down keys, but I absolutely hate off-center trackpads. What do you guys think?


All HP EliteBooks have one, right?


My work one certainly does, and I've found that replacing the cap with an official ThinkPad one gets you about 50% of the way to "ThinkPad-quality TrackPoint". But it started out as "Is this purely decorative? Have you tried to use this?!" so even with the red cover it was "Well, I guess it works for minimal mousing inbetween typing."

These days I use an external ThinkPad keyboard on it, since I'm mostly docked at a desk anyway.
