Use a mouse like a smart person? The only people who use the track pad have no alternative at the moment, or are brainwashed by apple ads.
Laptops have terrible ergonomics. Hunching over a desk like that is pretty bad for you. Use an external monitor, mouse, and keyboard and you'll remember how useless a tiny 16" screen and shitty unmoving glass pad can be as an interface.
Or the nub mouse! The pictured Thinkpad has a nub mouse and they're adorable.
If you can master the subtle science and exact art that is the clitmouse, then yes it can be a pleasant experience. But even the nicest tent isn't going to make camping feel like a Ritz Carlton.
