Yes, me at least (design work is not my main profession but needed for creating e.g. mobile apps).

It was my biggest surprise when I first bought a macbook: After a few weeks I noticed I didn't miss a mouse enough to bother bringing one with me.

I do 95% of my work when I'm commuting by train. Only for the last 5% super involved work I have to resort to plugging in a mouse when I'm in the office.

With all other laptops I have ever dealt with (admittedly not the replacements proposed in this thread), the ratio would be more like 50:50 or worse.

I also had a pretty high quality trackpoint from a business line Dell. Still missed the mouse.
