Well, for whatever reason, it has never installed correctly with the OS install, and I have not even been able to install it myself until about a year ago. It has been a royal PIA. why don't you look for a t42? I saw them recently for under $300...... Well, the truth is that I really do not like the touchpads and the way the case is enlarged to accommodate them. I know. Most would call me silly. Have a great day, Stan! Stu Hi Stu, I agree with your comments on the touchpad, I much prefer the small joystick button or ideally an external mouse. There are models of the T42 without that touchpad and in any case you can disable it in the BIOS - but as you say in either case the space is used, however in the models without the touchpad, that area of the laptop makes a good wrist rest area. Hello Stu and Ed: Forgive the "me, too" post, but... I agree with you. Nearly my first act when configuring a new TP is to disable the touchpad in BIOS. I dislike touchpads even more than mice. I frequently have opportunities to observe others using their laptops and amazed at how much effort they must exert with touchpads to ensure that the cursor goes where they intend, that they tap correctly, and that they don't hit the pad inadvertently. The Trackpoint and Logitech Trackman Marble Wheel are my preferred computer pointing devices. In my experience they are more accurate than mice and touchpads and less likely to cause overuse injuries than mice. - Mark Mark Henigan --
