What you actually need (with W/L, with desktop/laptop) is a touchpad and 
knowledge of how to really use it. You can use it with the thumb of your 
right hand _while_ you're writing. So it's faster than fast to use - 
when you've just learned it. Ordinary mouse is a piece of s when doing 
anything else but non-Pov-graphics* or games**.

*) meaning graphics that you actually shoot the mouse for a certain 
pixel after a certain pixel.

True. But our habit is the right habit ;), don't you think? I do miss 
the GUI of WinPOV, but everything else is so crappy and slow with 
Explorer that WinPOV's GUI - as damn good as it is - is not mentionable :/.
