That is painful for you on a touchpad?


There’s been plenty of times where I would rather drag an item on the screen than fiddle with the sometimes flaky responsiveness and range of a touchpad. I’m usually fussy about my Asus laptop’s pad - the MacBook _usually_ does fine in the touchpad area. The best was my old ThinkPad’s nipple - preferable in most ways to what I use touchpads for at all.


Are you asking about my sensitivity to pain here or disagreeing that this is easier with a touchscreen?


Both.
