GlassMan27: I strongly recommend buying a real wired mouse. Even a cheap low-end one will be a huge improvement over the touchpad.
Yes, and Gman even underlined the "wired" part. I play on a laptop also, and started with the touch pad,( no good) went and bought a wireless mouse and it made a world of difference.... that is until the battery in it started to run low, or the signal started messing up.
Never realized how much of a lag I had still with the wireless mouse until I went out and got an actual wired-mouse.
