It's definitely a subjective thing, but I think it just sucks. I set my machine to "tap-to-click" within a few minutes.

You and your cohorts will be among the first put up against the wall when the HCI revolution comes, especially the assholes that baked that behavior into the device firmware of some trackpads, forcing you to twiddle bits in the driver to ignore the taps (like on the OLPC XO-1).

"tap-to-click" is an abomination I wish to abolish from the face of the earth. I find it incredibly frustrating myself, but the older folks I know that already have problems with instinctively double-clicking everything are debilitated by it.

I'm not saying tap-to-click is the optimal paradigm, only that I had to employ it as a means of avoiding the shoddy trackpad button.

How can you mean that? Tapping is a much more lighter way of interacting with the touch pad. Way more elegant than a click with force.

I find that two finger and three finger (and even four finger) gestures are pretty awesome.
