You actually have both a touch pad and a touchsgick. I disabled both. However it required someone going into the BIOS to do this. Using the Control Panel would allow only one of the two to be disabled -- not both. Dave Carlson Sent from my Dell Latitude E6520 using Windows 7, San Francisco Bay Area ----- Original Message -----

A touch stick really? Where in the blue heck is the touch stick.

I recall certain old IBM laptops (when they were still called IBM's) had a strange little dot about the size of a pencil diameter (maybe slightly less?) that stuck through the keyboard-- I want to say between the g and h keys. You pushed on that to navigate. I'm typically sighted and a huge GUI / trackpad / mouse user, and still found the thing entirely useless. They didn't physically move anywhere but the pressure of your finger made the curser zoom all over the place. (Think of a tiny non-moving joystick.) I wonder if that is the same thing. It was truly the worst pointing device I have ever used and as a bonus it was a rough fixed object to scrape your fingers on as you typed in the center of the keyboard. I just wanted to yank it out with pliers every time I had to use one of those computers.

Hmm, I felt around and I asked my wife to also look and there is nothing between the G, H and N keys. What is the point behind the touch stick again? Maybe I don't have one? -----Original Message-----

What model Dell Latitude do you have? I had D610, D630, and now an E6520 -- all have the touchstick. Note that it's not actually a stick, but more like a small pencil eraser, rubbery surface and very low, as one other lister noted.
