Yes, the old good TrackMan Marble FX, the wired one, asymmetrical, with the
big red ball. I have two of them, used those for years (and a smaller one
for the family computer).

Not using them anymore, the notebook trackpad is more practical, but still
less precise. But they want in the wings for their comeback, this I know. :-)

Trackballs, trackpads, trackpoints, whatever, but drop the standard mice!
