Oh gee, have the idiot on ignore so I wasn't aware I was in another
bizarre BAH thread.  Looking back, it looks like I was addressing
the Name? OS? part.

Now I'm tempted to give my opinion on track pads:

Like many things, I had to be patient and I learned to use
them reasonably well.  If I had to use one a lot, I'd plug
in a mouse.  I'm not claiming they are great.
In fact, on the rare occasions I power up the
XP laptop, I use my ATEN KVM to toggle the full sized keyboard and mouse
to the laptop.
