They are.
All touchpads are crappy.
Except for the ones you get on Macs.

Seriously not kidding, the ones on MacBooks are so good I even got a Magic Trackpad for the iMac. It's the only decent touchpad I've ever used.

That's what the 4GB CF card is for my dear."I laid out memory so the bottom 640K was general purpose RAM and the upper 384 I reserved for video and ROM, and things like that. That is why they talk about the 640K limit. It is actually a limit, not of the software, in any way, shape, or form, it is the limit of the microprocessor. That thing generates addresses, 20-bits addresses, that only can address a megabyte of memory. And, therefore, all the applications are tied to that limit. It was ten times what we had before." ~ Bill GayThere were no such things in my day.

I got it installed alright but I had go on the hunt for tools to make a bootable USB drive. First of all the restore disc that came with the computer wouldn't boot from a USB stick, so I dug out my old XP disc and used that. That started to install OK, but it decided the USB drive was C:\ and the actual hard drive partition was\ and wouldn't let me change it. Then it would't accept the license key printed on the bottom of the computer. Then when it FINALLY installed it whined that "XP SP3 files have been replaced by unrecognised versions, system stability blah security blah blah, please insert XP SP3 setup CD" and wouldn't accept either the USB stick or the original untouched SP3 installation ISO.
All XP needs is an official tool to make a bootable USB drive. That's literally all it needs and anyone could have it installed and running in the space of 20 minutes. Microsoft should provide it, you shouldn't have to hunt for tutorials and tools and God knows what. Netbooks have been around for at least five years now. None of them have optical disc drives, yet all the recovery software is included on a DVD. It's ridiculous. Maybe it's easier with Windows 7, I don't know, but it's crazy that you have to jump through that many hoops to get XP installed on a netbook in 2011. Now compare that to the new version of OS X, which can either be installed straight from USB or - get this - will soon be able to connect to the internet, download itself and start installing if you boot up in recovery mode.

XP is two versions back, they'll never make an official USB install tool for it.
