Hi,

Have any of you noticed that your touchpad sometimes stutters / freezes / delays, especially after typing? I have experienced this with 3 different units... (should also mention I have the 15'' dGPU model)

Seems to always happen after typing a good portion on "Notes" or "Microsoft Word 2011" (like 2-3+ sentences). After I type, and go to move the touchpad, there is a delay/ stutter for about 3 seconds, then the touchpad works like normal.

This only seems to happen on word processing programs, and not when I am typing through other outlets (like this forum). Anyways, at least its software related, I imagine.

Please report your experience or if you can replicate the problem. Thanks!

Not totally relevant to your question, but my 2010 MBP did this on occasion--most frequently in the Mail app. Annoying as hell! And definitely, in the case of Mail, it was a software issue.

Hmm, somewhat comforting to know. 🙂

Hopefully it is indeed a software issue...

Anyone else experiencing this???
