No, it was a bit weirder. It was a clickpad in that there were no visible
buttons and you could click it anywhere, but the bottom part had two hidden
buttons with a kind of lever between them (I think). With the Synaptics drivers
I could use the hidden buttons for left and right clicks and a two-finger click
for middle-click.

My new touchpad is more like a standard clickpad, with no areas that feel like
a button. But anyway, between Linux power management and touchpad drivers not
working and the new Acer Windows drivers, I've stopped using the middle click
on a touchpad.
