I don't get what people have with apple's trackpad. I once got some second hand macbook air or something for work, and it felt like sliding my finger on a fine grained sandpaper. A jarring experience that I didn't like.

Pretty much anything else I ever used was more pleasant than that.

They are typically glass smooth, like an iPhone. Someone must have tried cleaning the one you have with some sort of abrasive or something.

I doubt it. It would look uneven or left some marks on the chasis nearby, and whatnot.

The chasis did have abrasive finish too. I'm quite sensitive to abrasive surfaces, they give me chills.

Anyway, maybe I'm misremembering and it was just the chasis. Nevertheless it was a very unpleasant computer.
