An interesting thing about these trackpads, the hardware was actually pretty bad. It can only move the cursor in the X or the Y axis at any given time, i.e. the hardware does not support diagonal cursor movement.

Apple's driver did a great job of masking that with fuzzing and (I believe) predictive movement, that's the reason it seemed good in Mac OS X. But you can even tell in OS X if you're really looking for it!
