Windows laptop with trackpad as good as the MacBook Pro

Hi all

I'm looking to see if there's a Windows laptop out there that has a trackpad as good as the MacBook Pro (gestures, multitouch, large size etc). I read reviews of laptops occassionally and haven't seen anything in passing that would match the MBP, but was wondering if there was anything I may have otherwise missed?

Many thanks

M.

Have a look at either the high end VAIOs or a couple of the Samsung high end products (like the series 9). They are all supposed to have pretty good trackpads. COuld always just buy an Air or 13" pro and run windows on it, although apparently the trackpad drivers aren't that great.

EDIT: Oh, you are the OP of that thread in Apple Hardware...

Yep, was looking either for a trackpad on a Windows laptop that matches the MBP, or how to make the MBP trackpad better in Windows

Not perfect though as they say.
