- 1MachineElf 6y agoIf system76 would put a TrackPoint onto a laptop keyboard, then I'd never need Lenovo again.
- esaym 6y agoI've thought the same thing. Doesn't IBM hold some patent/royalties on the use of a "trackpoint" though?
- toast0 6y agoSo, make it a extra cost option and have the buyer pay for the license? Or, copy trackpoints from outside of the patent window. A 20 year old trackpoint won't be as good as a modern one (probably, I'm not a trackpoint user), but it's better than no trackpoint?
- 1MachineElf 6y agoProbably. Dell/HP/Panasonic have equivelants that are nearly as good, but named differently. I don't know if those involve royalties to IBM or Lenovo. TEX Keyboards in Taiwan also makes a TrackPoint-enabled keyboard too.
