Time for me to graduate to a Win 10 laptop. Every model I've looked at has an all in one trackpad where the right and left click buttons are combined underneath the trackpad rather than separate right and left click buttons situated below the trackpad.

This presents a problem for me with a couple of speed/memory games I like to play so I'm hoping someone knows of a reasonably priced laptop (because I'm not a heavy user) that still has the separated right and left click buttons. TIA.

I always just use a wireless mouse on my laptops. Much easier for me to maneuver than the pad.

I also use a wireless mouse with my notebook computers because I play games. There is no way I can play certain type of games using a track pad whether the buttons are combined or not.

A wireless mouse may have to be the solution but I don't think it would work well enough for my games. With separate click bars I have my right hand on the trackpad and my left on the click bar. I need speed! Also my setup is kind of tight. My laptop is on a snack table in front of the couch in the living room with little room for a mouse. Have doggy stairs next to me on the floor so can't have a larger table to accommodate a mouse. It gets complicated.

I found a good solution that pretty much meets my needs and ordered it this morning. It's a Lenovo 15.6" on a Cyber Week Sale. It has separate click bars above the touchpad instead of below it.
