It's been years since I've used a mouse.  I have a MacBook Air and I just use the touch pad,  It's very easy to use once you get used to it and it becomes second nature.


@haddon9 I agree 100 percent!  I bought a MacBook Air in 2011 and haven't used a mouse with a laptop since.  I can't imagine using one with a laptop.

@Regal Bee 

 

The mouse came before the keypad, and then I used the keypad exclusively for a couple years.

 

I still use the mouse ... it depends where I'm sitting.

 

I suggest you be proficient in both.

@Xivambala @Marp  Cats and computers together can be a dangerous mix! While working at home last year, one of my cats RAN fast across my keboard and hit one or more of the F keys and my entire screen went solid blue!! I had to call out company IT people to figure out how to restore everything. Fortunately they knew what to do. A different cat bites the corner of my laptop, too. There are bite marks  on it....that look like bite marks. Love cats at work, though! Biggest perk of working from home. 


The cats know that my desks and computers are off limits, just like the counters, so they stay away from my computers, even in the camper and in the living room.

I have a MacBook Air and thought I would need a mouse, but I quickly learned I did not need it...just practice a bit using the trac pad....I bet in no time you will ditch the mouse.

No mouse for me, I prefer to use laptop without it.

Re: Do you use a mouse with your laptop?

No mouse.  I got my first laptop in '09 and never used a mouse with it or my current Macbook that I've had for almost 2 years.  

 

I don't let my cat near my laptop when it's open. He'll lay down behind it.  He'll lay halfway on it when it's closed.
