I’m torn between “uh, what” and “no.”

Does it come with a subwoofer and doubles as a coffee maker? In that case no…

Not in a million years.

There is no such thing as a perfectly accurate touch pad “click”. Most people (myself included) tend to see their finger slip (even just a millimeter) to the right or the left when pressing down to click on a touchpad. It leads to go knows how many times that my cursor in the middle of typing has suddenly jumped to a completely different line. In fact, it’s why they implemented the option to turn off the touchpad when typing.

So now let’s introduce ANOTHER use to that part of the keyboard. Not only do we have to deal with a wandering cursor, but we have to deal with random spaces popping into existence every time we try to scroll.

Screw that.

That sounds awful. We already have trackpoint to use a mouse in a compact device.

The printer would add so much bulk that it would no longer be a compact laptop anymore. I know you personally want one (from your recent post), but just carry a separate device or velcro it to the back of the laptop.

No.

But I would immediately buy a new laptop with a track ball and mouse buttons like this one

I’ve only seen one irl, and they are incredibly intuitive to use, and you don’t accidentally move the mouse while typing

I can’t remember the last time I had to print something out on dead trees. Pass.

I already carry a mouse with me when I travel because I hate laptop touchpads. So double pass on an even smaller area of integrated touchpad/spacebar.
