  After a 6 week hiatus to my dell desktop deciding it didn't want to work any more & being my dads carer its took a while to save & get a new system. The problem is i was used to playing this game with a mouse, but now with my HP laptop I'm using the Synaptics  touch-pad. Just a question is there many of you who use the touch-pad on your laptops or do you recommend i buy a mouse. Thanks in advance.

  Hi,

  Buy a mouse. Its much better to play with. With that said, I never have used a touch-pad.

  see i've played a few rounds and struggled so i don't know if its cos i haven't played for 6 weeks or its because i'm using the touch-pad. I am starting to think its the latter, so i think i'll invest in a mouse as it is what i was used to. Cheers Billyeva

  I've been playing with a touchpad for a while now (after damaging a couple mice...). It can be a hard transition but in the end there is not much difference... except you definately cannot play whilst speaking on the phone
