Yeah. I got a Dell for my day job and unfortunately the nipple is entirely unusable. I miss my ThinkPad :/

Same here. I had big hopes for Dell's nipple, but it's hardly usable and I tend to prefer the touchpad.

On my own Lenovo, I use the nipple exclusively, and touchpad is disabled completely. I had played Quake vs other human players with the nipple and won, and I find it vastly superior to any kind of touchpad.

Can confirm. Dell's nipples are unusable. Nothing like the Thinkpad ones.
