    Just received my zbook 17 G3. Overall it is good.

    But I must point out two things.
    1. The thing that disappoints me most is that, damn, you cannot set the middle button of the trackpoint to 'stick scroll' which is all available on thinkpad and dell models. Cannot believe Zbook G3's synaptics driver does not have this function! That makes the trackpoint basically useless!

    Is there anyone who can find a solution for this problem?
    Really hope HP release a better synaptics driver very soon!

    2. I am not sure, but at least, I feel the bottom of my machine is not very 'flat'. I mean it seems you have to put it on a really 'flat' surface. Otherwise one corner of the bottom might not really touch the surface of the desk, and you can feel that. I guess this issue is more easily to be found on 17 inch model than 15 inch ones. However I want to as k other guys with 17G3, do you have the 'not-flat-bottom' issue? I did some adjustments and now this problem is fixed.
