- eykanspelgud 8y agoI disagree. I have both a MBP and ThinkPad. I'm probably in the minority, but I prefer the trackpoint.
- rjplatte 8y agoI also have both, and I love both. I'm about as fast with both, although gaming with a trackpoint is a positively joyful experience.
- shittyadmin 8y agoI found the Mac trackpad worse than those on other laptops actually - seems to somehow get in my way more and it's push down thing seemed far more annoying than the tap gestures common on other devices. Fortunately that switch is possible on them I believe, just seems like you're giving up a "feature" to change it...
- jen20 8y agoBoth work simultaneously with default settings, at least on the latest OS.
- craigsmansion 8y agoI doubt that. Even though a Mac track pad might be the best trackpad out there, a trackpad has always been less than optimal substitute for a separate mouse, but being build in the device and always available made up for that gap in convenience. For laptops, if the principle agrees with you, a trackpoint is a far superior device to even a separate mouse for almost all uses.
- tapland 8y agoYes, and it saves my joints to not have to stretch and move a mouse.
