Given the CES announcements from Lenovo, Samsung and asus I can only assume 2017 will be even worse for Apple. Laptop with 25 hrs battery? Give me two please!

- WildUtah 10y agoGiven the Apple announcements last fall, I can only assume 2017 will be even worse for Apple. But let's remember that Apple still makes a majority of all the profit in the PC industry.
- seanmcdirmid 10y agoAnd yet no one but Apple can seem to make a decent track pad (even for windows). It's a show stopper for me whenever I think of moving back to a PC.
- ArtDev 10y agoMy Lenovo has an amazing trackpad. It is better than my wife's Macbook Air (though my machine is much much newer than hers).
- tw04 10y agoThe surface book trackpad is indistinguishable outside some of the gestures. Those could probably be custom configured if I cared enough to find an app to do so.
- tw04 10y agoI'm not sure who's down voting this, but feel free to provide, you know, ACTUAL feedback. I own one, I can attest to it. I currently own two macbooks as well and am extremely familiar with their trackpads.
- ComputerGuru 10y agoI realized aside from glass vs plastic (which is huge), most trackpad hardware is actually decent. It's the drivers that suck. The next Windows 10 update ("creator's edition") has a better "precision trackpad" driver that will finally do what Apple's trackpads have done for a decade and fixes all the precision, tracking, resting your palm, etc. issues that have long plagued Windows laptops. Just make sure you get a glass trackpad.
- nicky0 10y agoI'll believe it when I see it.
- ComputerGuru 10y agoI say that as someone who bought and returned four (very, very expensive) laptops after ditching my MBP in search of a good trackpad. Just keep away from elantech, stick to synaptics or alps.
