I don't necessarily care if it's a point or pad. I need it to get the jobs done that I mentioned above.
Can you with your laptop, and if so, which is it?
I had a Dell Precision M4300 for quite some time. Good laptop, decent trackpoint - but it was not good enough for design work:
My main problem was offsetting the cursor a tiny number of pixels, which needed some starting force on the trackpoint, which lead to more pixels than I needed.
Some trackpoint laptop might have figured this out by now. But if not, I'm not interested.
