I have used one for nearly 10yrs... I hate dragging a mouse around the desk all day so a track ball keeps me from having to do this! I actually like this one! its very similar to the Logitech trackball I am currently using but will provide the addition of a numerical keypad since i usually work on a laptop.

He probably is that way, and I'm sorry you have to deal with him. I'd throw the ball at him...lol I was just saying before I started that I'm not, I wasn't saying that your wrong. I'm sure most of the users are that way. haha no need to apologize, the fact is, there are those that do think that way and well, we as a society have to live with those stereotypes with lots of situations.

If you knew anything about me you'd know it's the exact opposite. That being said, I love my track ball mouse! I use a traditional one at work and for my laptop. Which is what I think this would be perfect for. Since my laptop's number pad is part of the keyboard and not separate. $60 is a bit much for me, but maybe someone would get me one for Christmas.

As if they are too special for a normal mouse so they have to use that ridiculous contraption. I have an office mate who uses it and always has a smug look on his stoopid face when people try to use him computer and find it difficult using the trackball mouse. He will say ,' Oh I never use a normal mouse. I find it too difficult. I dont know how you people can ever use it.' He will say it so proudly like he is so much better than all of us. He is not. He is an idiot. The problem with people who use track ball mice is that they want to feel special. As if they are too special for a normal mouse so they have to use that ridiculous contraption.
