    1) Most people don't need huge ass words crowding up their screen

    2) You can't upgrade it, it's got a special chip designed to work with the multi finger gestures

    Nope. Can't be upgraded (I have an older MBP, too, as well as the MBA and would love to upgrade the trackpad).



    The "help" sometimes takes a little while to come, so be patient.



    Different people look at different threads at different times. Some choose to reply, some don't.

    Thank you so much! I have seen that with some people. I know, I've made an error writing big and bold. So anyways, I hope some time somebody will post something good about the subject!
