Ask HN: Does anyone else hate the "zero-button" Apple trackpads?
I find that I misclick a dozen times a day, when my thumb does not press sufficiently normal to the trackpad surface, and so skids to a new location before the click happens.
- AlexMuir 14y agoI don't ever actually 'hardclick' the pad. I just tap it with my finger so I can't say that I've encountered this problem.
- hasenj 14y agoI think the apple track pad is the only good touch pad available on all laptops. I've never (ever!) liked using a touchpad on a laptop - until I tried the trackpad on apple's laptops. Re: clicking, I always configure it so that tap-clicking is enabled, so I never really had this problem.
- Toph 14y agoI LOVE the Apple trackpad. Its the first trackpad worthy of being called one. I didn't realize how insanely awesome it was until I tried going back to older trackpads on Macs (from 2007) or even on any PCs. It is so amazing.

- wkearney99 14y agoI also hate the lack of actual buttons with tactile response.
