Wes fired this volley in

Why do they have to put the touch pad in the center of the laptop
where it is certain the heal of my hand is going to contact it while
typing?


Because proper typing posture keeps the wrists elevated, and both hands
over the "home" keys; meaning the heel of your hand is NEVER over the
touchpad.

I use a touchpad exclusively, and touch-type. I never have that problem.
