I’m LOSING TRACK!
Less is not always more: Apple removing the trackpad button is one more MacBook Pro “improvement” that sucks. I don’t care that the new trackpad is a smooth glass surface. I don’t care that they’ve considered sensitivity and audio feedback. (Yes, how the click sounds is actually listed as a selling point!)
I don’t care! I think this change SUCKS! It limits my ability and control the cursor and click and drag! Try using this trackpad with greasy potato chip fingers! IT’S IMPOSSIBLE!
Apple has offered sucky trackpad gestures that allow for clicking and dragging. Maybe the only decent thing is at least it has also allowed me to opt out of these options and stick with old faithful: the always dependable, trackpad button.
I feel as if i’ve lost a longtime friend. JOBS, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?!? Now I have to carry my mouse everywhere.
It’s NOT a sucky Mighty Mouse, either. I hate that thing … but that’s for another post.

On every Mac product, it should say, “retards not intended”.
Hopefully you learned the important lesson to test a product before purchasing it.
