Why doesn't every keyboard have one of these? It's much better than a trackpad
>>107265822You clearly haven't worked on macs for more than an hour
>>107265864>cheaperThat's the whole reason right there. It's cheaper to convince retards that the bad option is better and just push this crap. You can even charge premium for what was the standard option (and the cheaper option is not cheaper for the final consumer).
>>107265822>It's much better than a trackpadIt's not
Trackpads on modern laptops are great. They have many features which can't be matched
>>107266011if you actually bother to learn how to use it you are so much quicker with a trackpoint and you dont have to move your hands from your keyboard to use it. most of what you do on your computer is done with your keyboard so its a lot more convinient
>>107265822It's a fucking consolepeasant controller. It fucking sucks.
>>107265822how do i do gestures with that? thanks>>107266073could you show me an example of someone being more efficient?thanks
>>107265864GPTvomit
>>107266073Just adjust the sensitivity of the trackpad which is also more accurate than the point
>>107266073Wrong
>>107265822legal trouble
>>107265822I started using keys on an analog keyboard, works fine but need to tweak response
>>107265862I give up after 5 minutes of cutesy animations, wacky sound effects and disgustingly bad ux
>>107265822>Why isn't [thing] better in this extremely obvious way?Normalfags. It's always normalfags. Basically every question in this format that gets posted on here can be accurately answered with "normalfags", to the point that these questions are barely worth asking.
>>107265822Its only upside is being able to scroll any text editor if I don't feel like clicking scroll bar. Much less tiring than the stupid 2 finger gesture
>>107267283>Macs>disgustingly bad uxAutism issue
good nubbins are a myth just like the female vagina.
>>107265822I use both. The trackpoint is just a glorified mouse wheel.
>>107265822its not quick or the most efficient for modern uses, but god is it comfy for long periods of use
