I still miss my X61s daily.
The trackpoint was great simply because I didn't need to move my hands anywhere else when using it, could keep my fingers all on the home row and still move pointer.
- j7ake 2y agoCan be done with Mac. You use your thumb at top of trackpad while fingers stay on home row.
- RhysU 2y agoNot remotely the same experience. One never picks up the pointer finger during input with the nub. The thumb on the track pad looks like one is a crab, constantly twitching and lifting.
- commoner 2y agoYou can't scroll with just your thumb, while you can scroll with a TrackPoint while holding down the middle mouse button. Using your thumb on a trackpad with your hand positioned above the keyboard is also less accurate and restricted to a narrower range of motion.
