What do you mean when you say the trackpad can be "fixed easily". Do you mean just use a mouse, or is there some other way to improve it?

- pwnna 12y agoYeah I would like to know as well. This is why I won't buy another thinkpad after T430 if they don't restore the top buttons for the trackpoint. Right now I have a T420 (which has the famous overheating issue) and a W530 and I'm quite happy. However this may change in the next couple of years. As far as Mac goes, I use a Macbook at work and I absolutely hate it. Mostly as I have my nice Linux environments setup and cannot understand why Apple can't conform to the standard CTRL SUPER ALT keyboard. Though this is just my opinion.

I get the feeling that ship has sailed; Lenovo seems to want to make second-best Dell or Apple machines instead of first-rate Thinkpad machines. I've a few Thinkpad standalone keyboards (all without the trackpad) and I just assume that with whatever my next laptop is I'll end up using one of those external keyboards. I've even sketched out ideas on how I might modify one so that it can be plopped on top of an existing laptop keyboard without hitting anything.
