      You really don’t get any of those things. Be a Mac fan if that’s your thing, but don’t try to pretend they’re actually any better because all the PCs you’ve used have been trash.

        I’ve yet to find a PC laptop that can replicate a Mac TouchPad. They’ve gotten better in the last few years, but are still miles off Apple.

        They’re not better for everything, but some stuff they’ve absolutely nailed over the competition and it’s not even close.

          If I’m honest I hate touchpads in general, even Macs. I’ve got a brand new top of the line Mac issued by my company. I use a mouse.

            And I prefer touchpads and find using a mouse on Mac a terrible experience. Touchpad gestures are a constant part of my workflow on a laptop due to the nature of only having one screen.

            Like I said though, Mac touchpads are miles ahead of windows touchpads and it’s not even close to a competition.

              Yeah that’s probably true. Every laptop I’ve ever used that I cared about gestures on just had a touch screen. Not that I’ve ever really liked that either.
