> I'll never buy a non-Apple laptop until I can find one that has a trackpad as good or better

Funny that

Commenting on a thread about a non-apple laptop that you'll never buy a Non apple laptop.

That is true and unadultered fanboyism.

Where's the fanboyism in that? They were commenting on a post about how most PC touchpads suck and that for some people a great touchpad is a requirement, the absence of which would prevent them from buying other laptops, such as the Framework Laptop.

The touchpad. Nothing else. Just the touchpad?

I'm not given to hyperbole but methinks there's a lot of info and technical requirements that go into purchasing an expensive item such as a laptop. Screen size and quality, keyboard quality, ports, batter life, weight, performance, looks - oh you know...normal stuff.

At least for us normal people. Maybe my mistake was there.

A requirement, not THE [single] requirement. English isn't my first language but I believe that what I wrote is clear enough and you're playing dumb for some reason.

Where did he say that was the ONLY requirement? It's possibly the most important for him but unlikely to be the only requirement.

This is the best place to talk about that. There may be multiple suppliers of trackpads for the Framework and so they GP might finally have some choice.
