My hunny bought me a new laptop for Christmas and I am returning it for the second time. They're both HPs running Windows 8, both touch screen. Both have the same issue. The mouse has a mind of its own. If I use an external mouse it's not nearly as bad but it still happens.
I won't buy a Dell again as they have crappy customer service. Any recommendations?
Are you sure it isn't the touch pad settings?? I bet it is. Let me guess: randomly jumps to different places in documents? Randomly seems to click on things while you are typing?
Probably nothing wrong with either laptop.
But, to answer your question: Sony or Toshiba or Lenovo if you are really anti-Dell.

This. Touchpads today have a wealth of setting, multitouch, gestures, tap zones, scroll zones. I suspect you just need to play with the settings.
Most laptops have a notoriously low profit margin. If you get a cheap one, the build quality will be poor. On the other hand, that particular model may just be a lemon.

I'll simplify this even more. If you want a quality laptop, go with a Lenovo ThinkPad. They are available with and without touchscreens. The x1 carbon series has what has been called the best touchpad in the industry.
I bought a new hp laptop and bought a mouse last month.
I don't like Windows 8, but no problems as I adjust.
