| Also known as a glidepoint
or trackpad,
a touchpad is an input
device
found on the majority of portable
computers,
and now also available with some external
keyboards,
that allows you to move
the mouse
cursor
without the need of an external mouse.
A touchpad is operated by using your finger and dragging it
across a flat surface; as you move your finger on the surface,
the mouse
cursor will move in that same direction, and like most
computer mice, the touchpad also has two buttons
below the touch surface that enables
you to click
like a standard
mouse. |
