I need some program that will let me scroll with two fingers (just like a mac) on my windows laptop.  Anybody know where to get one?

Lol at the title... SO INAPPROPRIATE TRI EDGE!!! lol

Ive heard synphatics or whatever its called is working on it, but since apple trademarked it or something like that, They might not be, but then agian, linux has it (Well most distros)

I thought it was hardware based... Must be wrong

im pretty sure that it is mainly Hardware based as you need hardware that can recognise a finger in 2 positions on it

i am not responsible for what i do or my advice

the majority of laptops nowadays usually have the synpatics trackpad which recognizes multiple fingers.  I know this because I found the software that worked like a mac but it needs a lot of work to be practical

Cant be, in linux I sorta hacked my way onto it, and when I was using OSX (Hackintosh lol) it worked fine (only reason I dont use OSX now is because my video drivers dont work, which is weird because its a X3100, which many macbooks actually use, and theres no drivers for them...)
