The Touchpad:<\/strong>
\nUntil you install the drivers from Synaptics<\/a>, you won’t have any tap or scrolling functionality with the touch pad outside of simple mouse movements. You won’t be able to tap on the touchpad in place of a left-click. I’m not too big of a fan of the mouse button(s) on the 10-inch Aspire One – it’s one button in rocker-style setting, and it can be a bit stiff. You need to install the drivers from the above link: Windows Vista 32-bit Edition v10.1.8<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once you’ve installed those drivers, this is what you’ll have:<\/strong>
\n\"10.1-inch<\/p>\n

Synaptics TouchPad Version 7.2. Among the features – “Long Distance Scrolling” (Coasting), and the option to display the status of the TouchPad in the taskbar (see the red arrow below).<\/strong>
\n\"10.1-inch<\/p>\n

You’ll be able to define your scrolling regions as far as the size:<\/strong>
\n\"10.1-inch<\/p>\n

You will also be able to setup your tapping functions – you can actually link each corner of the TouchPad to different commands – you could tap in the lower-left corner to bring up the start menu, you could tap in the lower-right corner to minimize the current window, etc. There’s quite a bit of custimization that you can do.<\/strong>
\n\"10.1-inch<\/p>\n

That wraps up this portion of the review. If you have any questions or comments, click on the main review links below and submit a comment (no registration required), preferably “Part 2”.<\/strong><\/p>\n
