I travel semi frequently with my laptop by Train, and use it often in outdoors. I can use a trackpad, but honestly the trackpoint is a bless in such situations.

I travel semi frequently with my laptop by Train, and use it often in outdoors. I can use a trackpad, but honestly the trackpoint is a bless in such situations. It's way more smooth experience, even though that trackpoint has its buggy stuff. The times I tried other laptops it felt so much different and difficult, I carried a wireless mini-mouse for that.
