Stupid laptop designers.

Who is the fool who decided that touch pads need no physically defined area? Nothing pisses me off more that trying to type something and coming to the realization that half of what I typed is somewhere else on the screen, all because I brushed the stupid pad. Or all of the sudden the screen scrolls because the idiot scroll areas have to be so large for my fingers to activate reliably. I never have these problems when the pad is slightly depressed into the surface.
