Well, sort of remind me of some discussions about Touchpads and Trackpads - 
the world seems to be divided between touchpad-haters and touchpad-lovers (I 
belong to the former group). The problem is that you can't change the 
pointing device of your notebook.
You can, however, change you GUI (well - if you're using Linux, of course). I 
must admit I'm hoping that some day we can just get rid of Aqua and install 
KDE atop Darwin, with some Aqua-on-KDE way to continue running the few Mac 
apps I really need.

Or maybe the MacOS X emulator will have improved enough to get usable - but I 
doubt that.
