Post #269,706 by tonytib 10/6/06 6:53:44 PM Reply	It's for X-rays Some guys from Advantech were visiting today (to talk about exciting things like motors and stages) so I asked about the trackball. If you want it, you'll have to call. Price is at least $115 (that may have been for a non-lighted one), and they haven't sold many. Original use was on an X-ray machine, which was used in the dark, so the light provided feedback on what the operator was doing. BTW, industrial joysticks and trackballs have a wonderful feel to them - in a different class (in price and performance) from consumer models. --Tony

I remember football. how you would just flick the ball and then keep the ball rolling and rolling and roling until you got the touch down. Also some of the golf ones had 'em too. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* Freedom is not FREE.
