Do you primarily use a mouse or touchpad as a way of navigating around on the computer? Why? I use a wired mouse as I have more control. It's quicker & easier to operate compared to the built-in touchpad.
 
I use my mouse, even though I use a laptop. Prefer it as it's so much easier to browser with it. I do use the built-in keyboard. Works well.
 
I used to always use a touchpad on my laptop but I had an issue where it would stop working sometimes. The repair was going to take some time so until they collected it, I started using a mouse with my laptop. And now, even after the touchpad has been fixed, I still use a mouse. I honestly couldn't go back to not using a mouse
 
Mouse 100% all the way. I hate touchpads :(
 
I have to use a mouse (mine's wireless), I simply can't stand touchpads, they're inaccurate and have a tendency to perform additional actions that you didn't intend, such as zooming in or out.. I know you can adjust the settings to prevent it from doing the latter, but yeah.. Just give me a mouse, dammit! ?
 
I had to use touch pads a lot to set up new pcs at work and a lot of days my hand just felt cramp.
 
I prefer using a mouse because it's much easier to navigate, and far less strain on my fingers. I even carry a second portable mouse just in case. Not a fan at all of the touchpad.
 
100% of the time I use my wireless £80 mouse from Logitech and even when away I still use it. the touchpad isn't easy to use and slower to use lol
 
I always just use the touchpad. :P I don't have a working mouse anymore anyways and plus I just use my laptop on a tv tray so I don't have any room for a mouse anyways with my current setup.
 
I prefer a mouse over the touch pad when it comes to playing online games. Touchpad is too slow.
 
I prefer using the mouse but I do also use the built-in touch pad on my laptop.
 
I can't even begin to express my hate for touch pads, I don't know why it just doesn't seem right.
 
Since my hands are big i always loved to use big phat mouses :D

Only those artists oriented laptops are worth having it with a touchpad function imo
