After using a T410 for a couple of years, I don't know if I would ever buy another laptop without a trackpoint.



In fact I can't (don't wanna) use desktop without pointing nipple. I have two (home/work) of these

How on earth did I go so long without knowing of that beauty?

Between that and this [1] I might be done until the brain scanners arrive.

Dude, we must have been separated at birth. I have that exact trackball on my desk. It's upside down (trying to unlearn muscle memory of going to track ball vs using nipple) but for some extended "mousing" it's the bees knees.


Been using a unicomp (buckling spring) keyboard with trackpoint for a while... Sadly (and obviously) the bs keys outlast the trackpoint keys...


The Unicomp EnduraPro, I'm guessing? Can you compare its pointing stick to the Lenovo TrackPoint? I heard that it wasn't nearly as good.
