Please don't turn this into an Apple vs Windows argument....

Am still borrowing the MBP from work but will need to give it back at some point soon. So I need to take the plunge and buy a laptop which will be a windows based device for three main reasons.

But - the apple glass touchpad works extremely well, especially compared to my work toshiba windows 7 laptop - the touchpad on that is diabolical - the mouse cursor jumps around all over the screen as soon as you put your finger near it and it doesn't have multi-gesture.

I have approx £750 to spend and am looking at Samsung, Lenovo or Sony.

Or recommend me something which is proven to have a decent touchpad. Yes I know I can plug in a USB mouse but this is a bit tricky on your lap and the touchpad should work as expected.

I would be gutted to find I have gone for a windows laptop with a rubbish touchpad.

The HP Envy Spectre range have very nice glass touchpads.
 
I like the touchpad on our Dell XPS (large, multi-gesture etc)...
 
I bought a new netbook/notebook fairly recently and it has the nicest to use pad of all I've used over the years. It's also a Win8 machine with a touch screen which works very well, although my poor typing skills mean that I sometimes touch the screen with spare fingers! It's an ASUS S200E.

Had a brief play with a Lenovo semi convertible a couple of days ago but didn't get much of a play with the trackpad - the touch screen seemed to work well though. If my wife hadn't recently upgraded to a Win7 netbook, I'd get her one since the name's rather appropriate - Yoga!
