Touchpad

A touchpad is a small, flat, rectangular pointing device that is sensitive

to pressure and motion. To move the pointer using a touchpad, slide your
fingertip across the surface of the pad. Some touchpads have one or more
buttons around the edge of the pad that work like mouse buttons. On most
touchpads, you also can tap the pad’s surface to imitate mouse operations
such as clicking. Touchpads are found most often on notebook computers,
including netbooks and many Tablet PCs.

Touchscreen
A touch screen is a touch-sensitive display device. Touch screens that
recognize multiple points of contact at the same time are known as
multi-touch. Users can interact with touch screens by touching areas of the
screen. Because touch screens require a lot of arm or hand movements, you
do not enter large amounts of data using a touch screen. Instead, users touch
words, pictures, numbers, letters, or locations identified on the screen. Some
touch screens also respond to finger motions such as sliding your finger to
drag an object or pinching your fingers to zoom in or out.
