Magically steal your money for Apple
Take the most annoying part of a laptop, and bring it to the desktop.
Thanks Apple.
Maybe I'm douche but I've always wanted a multitouch pad next to my keyboard. I only wish it was somehow integrated into a fullsize ergo keyboard.
haha #2 Good piont...cant stand the touchpad on the laptop!!
Good device for asian character input.
#2, it's the most annoying part of a PC laptop. Sony has an awesome way with the teeny holes texture on theirs, which works exactly the same as the holes in a proper disciplinin' board. Other mfrs just go straight off to sandpaper, you're lucky to get just a mildly fingerprint-polishing strip of smooth plastic anymore. I'm convinced that fast-food soda is made using trackpads, the ever expanding portions of one has largely shriveled away reserves of the other.
The buttons of many are cantilevered so you can only press them at one small point, making one handed operation more of a contortionist act. Right clicking is so absurdly distorted that you just lift your other hand from the keyboard and pile every prehensile limb into the effort; and another second is lost disentangling back to the keyboard's home row.
Yes, a trackpad is no good for playing games. But, there are times when you won't be playing games, and you should spend that time resting your twitch-sniping wrist. Babe Ruth spent his time away from the diamond swinging axes at firewood, and he's DEAD.

Trackpads are not the problem. Non-multitouch trackpads are the problem. I only had eyes for the ThinkPad keyboard big toes or a standard mouse, until I had a proper multitouch trackpad on my Asus netbook. Why I would need an extra large one on my desktop, though...I have no idea. Apple: Pretty, But Useless.
