To each his own.
Precisely my point :)
I love the smoothness of the trackpads and the ability to double click by tapping on them.
Modern nubs also support tap, double-tap, and tap-n-drag. Only the first generation of nubs didn't (much like the first generation of trackpads, e.g. on the PowerBook 500 series).
Can't stand those silly doinkers (a.k.a. nubs).
My two major tasks are CAD and typing (not counting general activities like playing emulated games and Web surfing). For CAD, a trackpad is a PITA. The pointer skitters around when trying to make accurate movements. I also hate the way it feels on my fingertip. For typing, a nub keeps my fingers on the home keys where they belong.
