    Nice! How well does the trackpoint work in terms of acceleration and response?

      I’m using macOS and unfortunately I didn’t find a good way to adjust its acceleration. IMO the firmware default is too sensitive and it’s difficult to hover over the right elements, you end up jumping over them. I’m not sure whether on Windows or Linux the issue can me improved.

        Eh, they have built in sensitivity adjustment with Fn+n where n is keys 1-9. Though I go with 7-9 as once you get used to sensitivity, it’s easy to control and much less hand stress.

        I have found them to be as good as the best ThinkPad TrackPoints (some in the past have been terrible, but they’ve been back to good form last couple of ThinkPads I’ve had).

          I… I had no idea and didn’t find any of this in the documentation. Fn+4 is ideal for me. Thank you so much!!

      Just replying in case you don’t see my grandchild reply, they are adjustable direct on the keyboard, and IMO the performance is as good as any ThinkPad TrackPoint, and better than many.
