The simple solutions are often the best. I've tried reconfiguring mine, but that causes its own problems: Sometimes you need to use it, because you don't have the mouse, and you really don't want to have to reconfigure things, yet again. Disabling the pad while typing adds annoying delays to your editing if you actually do want to want to use the pad. Disabling tapping doesn't disable tapping 100% of the time on my system. I wish it did, I have real buttons on my laptop that don't accidentally trigger, but the pad does. Can we design something worse than the mouse? Yes, here's a slow-as-stuck-in-molasses twiddle stick in the middle of the keyboard, that's worse than steering the inertia-riddled ship in the Asteroids game. Can we design something worse than the stick? Yes, here's a touch pad. Sensitive to the movement of a fly, five feet away.
