It may well be a good default when the buttons are physically separate 
(like on a lot of touchpads). But when the bottom of the touchpad itself 
is the button (ie the touchpad has a rocker, and you have to press down on 
the touchpad itself), the buttons technically _exist_, but they are 
basically useless.

That Dell machine got a lot of bad reviews for its horribe touchpad, and I 
used to not understand why people disliked the touchpad so much - it 
didn't feel horrible to me. But now I wonder if Windows has the same 
logic, and reviewers - like me - hadn't realized to enable the tap 
feature.
