Has anyone tried building a trackball version of Stephan Hans spinner control?
Trackball 1 could be interfaced with a hacked mouse and Trackball 2 could be interfaced to a keyboard or joystick port hack using Stephan Hans' method.

: : Don't think it is possible, I believe a Mouse driver only supports one pointing device, not multiple pointing device, I could be wrong but I can't see how this would be done, as both a Serial and PS/2 mouse would register but the programs would use both as the primary pointing device..
: : It would sure be cool to have dual trackballs.
: Perhaphs MAME could incorporate it's own dual mouse driver? That might be possible since dos mouse drivers are pretty standard, you could probably run 99% of mice / trackerballs from a generic driver.
