The majority of touchpads work the same regardless of the laptop brand. It is nonetheless an important feature to learn for business owners who desire to work with maximum efficiency. A touchpad allows you to scroll, select and click without ever plugging in a mouse. You'll have to get used to navigating with your fingers instead of your entire hand, but the speed you gain will be worth it in the end.
