Sheesh - why can't that cute little button be a sane,
effortless.. ergonomic Trackball ??

I thought it worked like a trackball
That being said, I'd really like one for my Powerbook, since I've started doing video editing recently and a mouse has much finer control than a trackpad.

Who says trackballs are ergonomic?
Not me. I can't stand the things.

Umm 'taint
It's a laser readin a surface.
Just the scrolling is 2-D via teeny button.
It's thus kinda like a '52 Morris Minor. With alloy wheels.
That's the way some of us view the persistence of mousing.
Still, all those pounds.. of Meat:
arm, shoulder, hand and other muscles have to drag the whole thing very very often
(seems it will now work even on those famous plaids worn by so many digital-watch wearers. Woo-f)
A Morris with electric windows.
Might'nt it work on any *nix, though? less'n the ap has to have been conceived as MM-aware to accomplish the sexy [link|http://www.apple.com/mightymouse/| demo].
But if it's really happy only on OS-X and its aware-aps - why's this in the Doze room?
Yes, All Know that some do not Like using the thumb - but for me a Trackman Marble is like taking baby from candy. The camps have duelled many times, but as to the {ugh} granularity re pixel-pushing - is that any more than a sensitivity-setting away? Maybe that double-squeeze-thingy's menu could toggle Hi / Lo speed. Just like one's auto transmission.

Hmmm - MMouse on Puppy Linux?
More playful than a mouse (in a Morris)
on a tiger

no, from the song
[link|http://www.lyricsdownload.com/bob-and-tom-taint-lyrics.html|http://www.lyricsdow...taint-lyrics.html] There's a little spot
every woman's got
between her cooter and her tushy.
It's the patch of skin
that sits right in
between your booty and your bushy.
It's just a notch
below your crotch
and your derri\ufffdre's behind it.
In between the pink
and the stink
that's where your gonna find it. :-) thanx, bill Any opinions expressed by me are mine alone, posted from my home computer, on my own time as a free american and do not reflect the opinions of any person or company that I have had professional relations with in the past 50 years. meep

My dad would've busted a gut laughing at that
God rest his soul.
