It's a touchscreen, so you can't lay your fingers on the buttons before pressing something (unless they add pressure-sensitive controls), and you have to reach across the keyboard, so you can't brace your hand on the computer chassis while hitting buttons. Instead you have to awkwardly hover your hand over the touchstrip to use it correctly, which is really awkward
