Is it possible to use a mouse in conjunction with a lap top, I read where the pc is going by the wayside in the future, and can't imagine using the pen tool or others with out a mouse.

thanks

mee too. I cant use pen tool without the mouse. Not only that, I think will be crazy to do photoshop without the mouse.

Yes, just buy a USB mouse and plug it in.

I can't see PCs going anywhere any time soon. Like you, I'd struggle without a mouse to use a lot of applications I love - i.e. Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere etc.

the pc will be around for a long time it just won't as dominent as to day because of the moble devices...
all this stuff that your hearing about pc going away is garbage..... for example... i would hate to try to photoshop with a stupid table.. smiling.... or do spreadsheets, movie editing etc.......
