I've not yet heard complaints about apple's choice to oversize trackpads on laptops, in particular, the MacBook Pro series. By jamming the pad into the keyboard, a vital 1/2 cm of space between the space bar and the trackpad where my thumbs tend to dawdle on earlier laptops has now disappeared. My thumbs have not. Add to this the heightened sensitivity to "hovering" on the new trackpads and I find typing on the new MacBook an absolute nightmare. No matter how hard I try, the thumbs will naturally drift down close enough to the trackpad to send the cursor flying, and before I can catch myself, I've typed three words in the middle of some sentence above, to the right or to the left of where I was supposed to be typing. This is not just an inconvenience; I consider it yet another design flaw, and an egregious one because it signals that Apple's design people really didn't think about how people actually USE laptops. And why such an oversized trackpad? I can't imagine that this extra 50mm is a significant improvement for very many users. So when I consider the dodgy new keyboard itself, the loss of the magnetic power attachment (one of the most brilliant technical innovations ever made to laptops) and the USB C fiasco (does anyone's USB C plugs actually "snap" in any more after a handful of uses? Mine just seem to hang there and fall out if I tilt the laptop too much,) I am gutted. That magic "Apple" experience is totally gone, hanging on only a mystique that gets more and more tenuous every time I use my laptop.
