You have to learn to use it as you had to learn to use an ordinary mouse or trackpad. Once you are comfortable with it a trackpoint is 10 times better than using a trackpad (probably even more ;) ). For example, you don't have to leave your hand(s) from the keyboard or awkwardly balancing the labtop on your knees when moving the cursor.
- KozmoNau7 9y agoNope, the trackpoint is simply inferior, especially for scrolling.
- czeidler 9y agoNope, you have no clue :) thats what a trackpad is good for. The trackpad is easily reachable with your thumb without leaving your fingers too much from the keyboard (most linux distros have the right of the trackpad configured as scroll area). So no annoying multi finger scrolling needed. Furthermore, middle mouse button + trackpoint scrolls as well, so scrolling really isn't an issue.
