laptop mouse Q, for j00.

Hey lemon, I was just thinking about my laptop.

You know how when you're typing and you tap the mouse pad at the bottom, thereby moving your curser on the screen? Would you know how to turn that off so that you can't double tap the pad to move the curser?

nope, never really typed much on a laptop, and its "cursor" :booze


i dont understand: what do you mean tapping the mouse pad at the bottom, and double tapping it?


hmm, sounds interesting.

you know how laptops come with the square area to move the mouse with? well, I find on other people's laptops that my arms sit too close together and will touch that pad.... the cursOr will move to where the mouse is sitting over the text box and since I type so fast it takes me a while to realize that I'm typing the end of a sentence right in the middle of it.

most of the laptops have a little button by the touch pad and if you press it it disables the touchpad

I just shut off the internal pointing device. My laptop is Japanese, a Fujitsu, and I have to press FN (function) F4. Or you could simply go to mouse options in your control panel and shut off the pad click. Then you could just use the button or the mouse.
