Lenovo

My new (ish) work laptop, and back to an IBM. My first work laptop was a IBM Thinkpad, this one is a Lenovo Thinkpad, 15 years later on and a descendant of my first. Funny that the guys that invented the Personal Computer now now longer manufacture them and just consult! Still after years of dirty Dells, hopeless HPs and the like, this is proving really quite acceptable.....it almost starts as quickly as the mac, the battery life is almost as long and it's almost as light....so in the words of VW, it's like a Mac, just not quite!

Just one question remains, the same one that I had 15 years ago, what do you call the red thingy that controls the mouse?
