My touchpad button is being weird
Hey all,
So, I don't know what happened. I haven't even MOVED my PB12 in a couple of days, and I just noticed, the touchpad button doesn't press.
That is to say, it doesn't have a tactile press. It's like, almost pressed all the time. You can't rest your finger on it or it presses and stays pressed.
I'm kinda worried that it'll turn to Always Pressed soon.
Anyone know if this is a common problem? Or if my laptop heard the rumours about the small-factor MBP and is trying to make sure I'll get one? And if it is common, is it an easy-fix?...

Then when you hear a cracking sound, go and buy a MBP
It's maybe just worn out and you need to get it fixed. Every clicker fails eventually. I would personally stop using it immediately before it does stick down and use an external mouse.
I'll go to an apple store today and see how much of a shafting fixing the thing is.

Well, an external mouse isn't really practical when your laptop is actually on your lap a lot of the time. Luckily I can still tap the touchpad.

Repeat after me.
