 That is correct. T23 has (like all Thinkpads has had for ages) the
 TrackPoint (some models, especially the X line, do not have the TrackPad).

 A click on the second (middle) button is a "middle click", clicking and
 holding the second button while moving the trackpoint should be treated as
 a scrolling wheel.

 I love this feature. The only reason why I do not own a Macbook is it's
 lack of TrackPoint. TrackPads (Touchpads) are useless.
