USB mouse (purchased separately) by connecting it to one of the USB ports on the computer.

Using the pointing stick
Press the pointing stick in the direction you want to move the pointer on the screen. Use the left and right pointing stick buttons as you would the left and right buttons on an external mouse.
Using the TouchPad
To move the pointer, slide one finger across the TouchPad in the direction you want the pointer to go. Use the left and right TouchPad buttons like the buttons on an external mouse.
