Why do I not like a single fucking laptop being sold right now? Seriously, I've been to three stores, I've searched online, I don't like anything I've seen. I just want a power cord on the side of the computer rather than in the middle of the back, a mouse track pad that will respond to my thumb so that I don't have to take my fingers off home row to select anything, and an Intel processor.

Does anyone have a laptop that they love? I've always had Dells, and I've never used a HP that didn't have this problem with the tracking pad; if I change the sensitivity options on my mom's then it jumps around selecting things willy nilly.

This is so frustrating I legitimately think I might cry. I just want a new computer, why is it this hard?

WTF THUMBS.

I have a wireless mouse that I rarely use and just stick with the track pad, but I just tried the thumb thing and OMG AMAZING.

LOL, yaaaay, I converted you! ONLY NO, IT'S SHIT BECAUSE THERE ARE NO COMPUTERS FOR ME RIGHT NOW. :|

Are you trying it on a Dell, HP, or something else, and if the answer is not a Dell, HOW did you get the sensitivity settings to work so that you could move the mouse more than one inch at a time w/o being hypersensitive to clicking every single thing? XD
