    So I've ordered a GT72VR and one thing I'm not sure of; is there any way to set up virtual scrolling on the mousepad? I actually *really* like this feature about my Alienware.

    I thought it was enabled by default; one finger stationary and a second finger moved vertically is supposed to initiate the scroll function. Is that not working?

    It's dumb but I actually don't have the laptop yet. It will be here next week. I just didn't see it on the best buy one they had at the store. I'm used to the "swipe up and down on the far right of the mousepad" the Alienware has.

    Thanks for clarifying it for me! Glad to hear it has it. No virtual scrolling is a gamebreaker for me, I'm okay with just needing to learn a new technique.
