Look at this guy here, trying to do actual work with a trackpad. Just use it to click the next YouTube video like everyone else does during work hours.
I know you're being sarcastic, but I want to share that my daily machine is a Lenovo P50 with six individual mouse buttons. Six! I use them all, and have remapped the upper left and right click to be back and forward. These navigation buttons work in my browser, file manager, and more.
I would have expected this laptop of all laptops to have options for buttons. I don't mind the Apple touchpads, but I greatly mind how anti-consumer Apple is and don't want to fund their lawyers and patents. It seems like every other vendor is attempting to mimic Apple, but are doing a terrible job at it.
Meanwhile i had trackpads with buttons and i dont want them in my life. Get that shit outta here
(So we need both options)
