Well, I just got a laptop with a pointing stick and a touchpad so I was wondering what other people preferred in a laptop. Whether it be a stick or a touchpad, let's hear it

I prefer the stick to be honest, I find it much easier to use when out and about. Mainly because of how sensitive the pad is too moisture. This new(er) laptop that I just got has both a stick and a touchpad in it, so I can test each of them at the same time.

ROTFLMAO Sounds Dirty

Touchpad

Stick

trackBall

USB mouse all the way. I hate touchpads.

lol rick

Tarun, agreed. Touchpads are good for when your at work/school, but when you got the space, external mouse works the best.

I use a mouse when i sit at my desk, but other than that, i love the touchpad, it gives you a better "feel" of your computer

The touchpads I have on other laptops work great, but the one on this Latitude CPx works poorly. You really gotta push on it to get it to work right. Same with my keyboard on it

Synaptics drivers for touchpads work great, but they don't work on my CPx because it's an Alps touchpad.

Pft, I make space. I did that at work too.

I can't, not enough space at school. I'm forced to use a touchpad :lol:

I'd find a way, even if I had to pull up another desk.

:lol: haha I see your point. If I have to though, I'll make due with the touchpad.

I prefer the nipple. You call it a stick for some reason.

Me too, we call it klitac, which means (small clitoris) :lol:

I prefer to call it a stick, sounds a little bit better :lol:
