Hi Tom,

 

As suggested, in Control Panel you may find an icon relating to the touch
pad, or alternatively look at the Mouse icon.

 

However a low tech solution I've seen is to get one of these plastic
store/shop loyalty cards from the likes of Homebase, and sellotape  it just
on one side, covering the touch pad.  Then if anyone does need to use the
pad, they can just flip it open like a book.

 

But do make sure it's not an old credit card or anything with personal
details on it.

 

George.

First, the question: does anyone know if you can disable the mouse, keep
hitting it with my sleeve?

 

Now, a couple of thoughts. Not plugging this particular machine, but, more
the idea of the mobile netbook. I really got this as a holiday machine,
mainly for a bit of surfing, e-mail and media. I'm using speakOn for a lot
of the media. I paid about 200 pounds just over a year ago for an Iaudio
player and, given that this machine is 300, I wouldn't pay up for the Iaudio
again. I've stuck on microsoft office and given the rest, this has been a
real bargain.

 

Tom
