Andrew,
Glad to see you back! Have you turned on the setting in the Mouse & Keyboard
system preference, in the Trackpad tab, that says "Ignore accidental
trackpad input"? With this turned on, whenever you type, the trackpad
becomes temporarily inactive.

farming n.: [Adelaide University, Australia] What the heads of a disk drive
are said to do when they plow little furrows in the magnetic media.
Associated with a crash. Typically used as follows: "Oh no, the machine has
just crashed; I hope the hard drive hasn't gone farming again." No longer
common; modern drives automatically park their heads in a safe zone on
power-down, so it takes a real mechanical problem to induce this.
