From what I gather it might be the best way for me going forward to have a new PC. I see them as low as $150 on amazon that come with windows so I'd have to nuke the SSD and install something like Mint on it instead.

Maybe we can get a fundraiser going for me so I can finally get a new laptop and put this 12 year old piece of junk to bed.

    keyboard nipple mouse.

    I've never used one before and had no clue that's what it was for. I have a kb+mouse rn I use on this laptop.

      You press it with a little bit of force (just to have the finger not slip away) and then move in some direction, the cursor will follow. Usability ranges from "fun gimmick" to "I have heavy gloves, the nipple is my only mouse input"

      Allows you to use mouse input without moving your hands away from the keyboard. It's great for when you need to do small mouse movements in between typing like clicking on cells in a spreadsheet or clicking reply on comments.
