I have bought two of the microspeed inc. track balls. They are 2.25 inch balls and come in serial or PS2 versions. They supposedly retail for $99, but I have bought a couple from ebay for $15 (used). Not as big as the 4 inch trackball I just bought, but no hacking required and happ makes a trackball cover plate that is made for the 2.25 inch trackball. Buy the mouse, take the cover off, screw it into the control panel and you are done. Hope to have some pics of mine soon, but then again, would love to have the 4inch trackball working as well! Here is hoping Jerky and his crew get it going.

- Agreed. For some reason, 3" feels like a good, comfy "standard" size. * NT Joe 11/01/99 (0)
