3 yeah at first it's odd, but then when you start getting used to
4 navigating without removing hands from keyboard it does become almost a
5 prerequisite.
6 does anyone know if you can get usb keyboards that have the trackpoint
7 style mini-joystick in the middle of them ?
8
9 the other big thing with the thinkpads used to be the keyboards. the
10 x201 had a great almost totally full size keyboard, but they are
11 increasingly becoming a thing of a bygone era with apple style
12 calculator buttons that have nothing like the tactile response they used
13 to have. as lenovo are moving away from these big-key style keyboards,
14 does anyone have any recommendations of a laptop supplier that is
15 starting to use them ?
