First of all, I think one of the big problems is that because all of us Mac laptop users have been used to the physical button there at the bottom of the track pad, we use it to rest our thumb on. Well, now that there is no button, when you put your thumb on the touchpad you are creating a dual touch scenario. Both your thumb and finger on the pad at the same time seem to cause the cursor to freeze in limbo. I've had this happen many times. And it's super frustrating. It happens particularly often when trying to highlight certain text and move around within blocks of text with your cursor. It ends up taking twice as long to maneuver as it used to as I have to remove my finger, then depress the bad and hope it "resets" the cursor out of the freeze mode it's in.

Funny that you mention about a chip in mac because I have the same thing on the side of my display. I noticed it when I took it out of the box.
