I find the mouse better for zooming (scroll wheel) and rotating (click and drag). Second to that, for less articulate but quick performance of same task, using the touch screen to rotate and drag in the same way you would on a track pad but actually interacting with the imagery directly. The laptop keyboard and trackpad combo is fine, but to me they’re merely a convenience until I can get back to a “real” keyboard and a mouse. It’s not uncommon for me to spend hours using the laptop’s HIDs directly, but I don’t think it’s very ergo, and definitely not as productive as a full desktop setup. External trackpads don’t sell well for a reason - simply that if you have the desk space for one, almost everyone is better served by a good quality mouse.
