Loved the nub, but it also ruined touch pads for me.

It makes shopping for laptops either super-easy or super-hard.

I can either get a Thinkpad, or try to find the one or two HP and Dell business laptops with one... and we all know how it ends (looks at stack of X230t, E585, and new L13)

It is going to be harder and harder in a few years. They already worsened the keyboard and made trackpoint buttons flat like dell ones so we'll all eventually switch back to trackpads or mouses I guess. Too nieche product honestly so I get it but kinda sad :(

OTOH, it is a very effective product distinguisher. They don't have to deal with the "Apple makes the best touchpad" meme by offering something else.
