> I'm not even talking about gestures. Let me see you getting used to fluid two finger scrolling

I call two finger scrolling a gesture.

Most mac users I know don't know any gestures at all, they just use it like a PC trackpad.

For me, I immediately turn off all gestures as soon as I buy a new laptop. They are just more trouble than they are worth in my opinion. I've tried them - they just get in the way.

I also know people that swear by gestures and the macbook touchpad - and for them the mac is a good choice. For the rest of us, it's just a slightly bigger touchpad with hidden mousebuttons (another thing that makes macs difficult to use for beginners).
