You'd be shocked how easy it is with a trackpad, especially if
you reassign some keys. I've tried both trackpad and mouse with
my laptop, and I would never switch over to using a traditional
mouse. Swamp also has an offline mode, and as I said, with
campaigns, the online part isn't everything.

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Looking For Something New to Play
Hi Dark,
Well, I like Swamp, but you hit upon the major problem why I
don't
play it much. My laptop only has one of those crappy touchpads,
and I
can not play Swamp very well with the touchpad. I'm not going to
unhook my USB mouse from my desktop and take it along with me
everywhere I go just to play Swamp. Plus that assumes there is a
desk,
table, or similar surface where I can setup my laptop and mouse
to
play which means its all around an inconvenience when it comes to
portability.
The other issue is an Internet connection isn't always available.
If
I'm in the car riding from say Millersberg to Wooster to go
shopping
or something I'm probably going to be without an Internet
connection
for the duration of the trip. So I can't just bring up Swamp, log
into
the game, and play. Once again, it seems a game designed for
people
who happen to be at home and tied to their desktop. Its not
designed
for people who travel a lot and are trying to pack a few games on
their laptop or netbook for entertainment purposes.
Cheers!
