I think you are using the phrase "shameless plug" incorrectly. "shameless plug" is normally used to advertise _your own_ merchandize. For example, a Youtuber talking about his/her other Youtube channel shamelessly.
However, in your comment I think you meant to say "a dig" instead of "shameless plug".
"This is not intended as a dig on Lenovo...", or "I'm not trying to pick on Lenovo..."
cheers
- lonelappde 6y agoYou've got it backwards.
- drewg123 6y agoWhat I'm saying is that, because I need an eraser stick, I can only consider Lenovo (and some Dells). And I wish I had more options.
- smacktoward 6y agoI’m in exactly the same boat. TrackPoint 4 life, yo. What’s extra weird is that the first TrackPoint laptops appeared more than 20 years ago, so any IBM/Lenovo patents on the technology must have expired by now...
- numpad0 6y agoA square trackpad being required for laptops by Microsoft or something. Also third party TrackPoints don’t have that magical touch, they’re hard or slippery or drifting more often or combinations of them. Some UMPC models from Sony, Fujitsu, OQO, Palm ARM laptop prototype had it I think, recently GPD had it.
- silon42 6y agoSome HPs (Elitebook) also have (had?) one.
- frxx 6y agoZBooks usually feature them. I've got two of them now, they both have it. Personally I still prefer the feel of the Thinkpad ones.
- nmstoker 6y agoWell spotted. However technically they are correct, it is not a shameless plug!
