Favorite Trackpoint Cover

#1 Post by RUSH2112 » Wed Dec 20, 2006 9:03 pm

This has probably been covered in the past, but I feel its a worthy discussion.
What's your favorite type of trackpoint cover?

BTW, If I missed one, let me know and I'll put it in there or feel free to do it yourself if your a moderator.

Why would anyone prefer the Classic Dome to the Soft Dome? The former hurts the finger a lot more.

My question would be, "Does the Soft Dome have a greater tendency to leave marks on the LCD over the Classic (cat's tongue) cap?" I just got another additional T23 to the collection and it came with the soft rim version. It also had a perfect circle on the LCD!
