Would you replace your numeric pad with a trackpad?
lucumo: No, absolutely not.First, I love my keypad. It speeds up typing numbers considerably. In fact, I find myself wishing the non-decimal hexadecimal digits were added to it as well. As well as a comma as thousands separator (or as decimal point when I'm typing Dutch).Second, I loathe touchpads. They're much harder to control than normal mouses. I only use one when there's no other choice, e.g. in the train. I carry an external mouse with my laptop, so I can use that whenever I encounter a desk.
