So except for those times when I’m actually using my laptop on my lap-and, thus, don’t have a flat surface to host a mouse or Magic Trackpad-I always have an external pointing device handy. The trackpad on Apple’s MacBook models is pretty great, but trackpads aren’t ideal when it comes to ergonomics-a separate mouse or trackpad, off to the side, is better for your fingers, hands, and wrists.
