Agreed… but really only for macs. That’s where it’s beautiful.
I even use their larger external trackpad with the mini. But on work supplied machines and such I use a conventional mouse.
It’s not even because everyone else's trackpads are fucking garbage (they are). It’s that systems that aren’t macs just weren’t built around using one.
Some of the slightly-less-trashy bits of 3rd party software try to bridge the gap, but it’s not the same.

The trackpad is a fantastic input device. I use it exclusively when on a laptop, and on a desktop I'll use both a mouse and a trackpad.
