The trackpad is a useless piece of technology. A serious laptop should not have one, and instead should be like pic related. I just want an X200 but with a higher resolution screen and new internals for improved performance and battery life.
>>
Is there any way to seriously upgrade a X200?

cry me a river, bitch

Just disable the trackpad then.

track pad with gestures is a useful tool
scrolling is nice

page up/down and arrow keys are slower and less accurate


it's a bad pointing device for sure though

It is objectively inferior for anyone who does any serious work. You should not have to move your hands from the keyboard to move the cursor should you need to.

>muh hand movement
Here we go with that dumbass meme again.

Besides, you have something called wrists and fingers and they're bendable. Ever thought of placing your hands in a way that you don't even really need to reposition your hands at all to move the mouse with a touchpad? Of course not cause you're retarded enough to be bitching about touchpads.

We have OP having reasonable concerns in front of a bunch of apes who love to suck dick. what a thread

You shouldn't do serious work on a laptop. You should be doing light mobile work on a laptop. You should be doing serious work with a serious computer.

So essentially the Carbon X1?

Rip off the crappy anti glare and its essentially the perfect laptop. Aside from its shit house speakers.

Seriously my s6 has better sounding audio...

no we have an autistic sperglord who doesn't realize that no one wants to use shitty thinkpads

I require the mobility of a laptop. A proper laptop these days is a serious computer.

>>52039961
It's a solid machine. Can't go wrong with a cheap used ThinkPad.
>>
>>52040150
What "serious" work do you do on a laptop on the go? I guarantee that you can buy any desktop for much cheaper and it will have better specs than your laptop.
>>
laptops should use trackballs instead they're fucking awesome and if you ever used a decent trackball you would never want to touch a touchpad or any other compromise input device ever again
