Muscle memory is a bitch to unlearn.
Only when the new memory is markedly different. Yes, some people will never be able to adapt to change.
But I'm betting that with a little effort, learning the new memory won't be nearly the obstacle you think. I use a trackball with my MB because it's multi-function is superior to the track pad. But after just a few minutes playing with a UniMB the Multitouch track pad started to feel pretty natural.
I have no doubt that I'll be able to upgrade my muscle memory.
