Touch screens are even less efficient and ergonomic than mice which are pretty terrible at both those things. Track balls and pads are only a tiny improvement.

Touch screens are even less efficient and ergonomic than mice which are pretty terrible at both those things. Track balls and pads are only a tiny improvement. All of these input methods are deeply flawed but there are no real alternatives that I know of. There's plenty of us that would move to better, more efficient, more ergonomic input methods were they available.
- illumin8 11y agoI use a magic trackpad and find it very good at giving me the best features of a mouse/pointer interface and a touch interface combined. You can do things like two-finger scroll in any document and 3 finger swipe between desktops minority report style... All kidding aside, it seems very productive, but I still keep a mouse plugged in just in case I need to run Visio inside a Windows 10 VM to do some diagraming... Mouse is much more precise and less fatiguing to use for serious diagramming...
