    My buddy had the magic trackpad for his macbook pro and I thought it was very ergonomical. I wonder if it'll work on winddows 7 on my studio xps. What do you guys think about this new trackpad? yay or nay?

    Apparently it will work but it is not an easy install and not all the features operate such as certain gestures and multi-touch commands do not work as these are not currently supported by Windows.

    Might be worth holding off as there are rumours that Windows are thinking of releasing something similar.
