With a Trackpoint-equipped keyboard and a Cintiq (or a tablet like the Intuos if you're using a laptop) you can rule the world. (Well, unless you're a gamer.) The only thing a Trackpoint can't do well is draw, and frankly touchpads, mice and trackballs fall short there as well.
EDIT -- I'm not certain you can find a keyboard with a Trackpoint that isn't part of a Thinkpad anymore. There used to be a couple of licensed versions in addition to the IBM-branded ones.
- jamesbritt 16y agoSome Dell laptops offer trackpoint keyboards (a big draw for me). Unicomp sells heavy, clacky-key, IBM Model-M style keyboards with the trackpoint built in http://pckeyboards.stores.yahoo.net/en104wh.html http://pckeyboards.stores.yahoo.net/en104wh.html Sort of pricey, but really nice whwn you want to hack with your feet up and the keyboard in your lap, and not have to reach for a mouse.
