I definitely do not think adding an archaic input to a gaming focused laptop is a killer feature, nor should it be configurable, at least on this brand.

- AstralStorm 10y agoHey, the pointing stick is an excellent input device. They are used in joysticks and gamepads all the time - hat switch and analog controller are essentially the same thing with slightly different implementation. It works much better for many kinds of games actually than a touchpad. Heck, I'd take two or four of these in a gaming laptop, you'd essentially have a gamepad included with a real keyboard.
- thoughtpalette 10y agoAs a huge gamer, yea, that type of input makes sense _on a controller_ type form. In the middle of a keyboard doesn't make sense _on a gaming_ focused machine.
