This works great on Windows Thinkpads, but the bumps on the Thinkpad Chromebook are a scam. The two pictures on this page show that the middle button has small bumps across it which should make it easy for your thumb to find based on touch. Even if your thumb can't find the left/right click buttons, it could, perhaps, start at the middle button and move in the desired direction. Not only is the left mouse button virtually flat, so too is the middle scroll button. The red pointing stick can only be useful, if the thumb can easily feel for the three buttons under the space bar (left mouse, scroll, right mouse).

This is a big deal to anyone who uses the red nub all the time. On the many other Thinkpad keyboards that I have used, such as the T460 shown below, the button is raised much higher making it easy for my thumb to locate it by touch. The first thing I noticed was that it was hard to position my finger on the left mouse button because it is raised only a few molecules higher than the metal plate.

The left and right buttons are the usual mouse click buttons, the middle one is for scrolling. My big gripe is with three mouse buttons found at the top of metal plate ("trackpad") on a Thinkpad keyboard. And, this is one area where I qualify as an expert, having used Thinkpad laptops every day for decades. They keyboard is not nearly as nice to work with as those on a non-Chromebook Thinkpad. Does the C13 live up to expectations? In a word, no. No doubt the keyboard (above) will tempt many people who love the Lenovo keyboards on their Thinkpad laptops.
