Hi Emmet. I use the Logitech Trackman Marble FX. It is an optical trackerball and as such it is very easy to keep clean. The large ball just pushes out and accumulated fluff etc. can be blown away. The design is excellent and is very comfortable to use once you get used to it - you do need to give it time. I would steer well clear of the Microsoft trackerball mice - IMHO they are tacky and nowhere near as pleasant to use as the Logitech. I have never successfully used the fourth button scrolling feature of the Logitech - the fourth button can be set up as just another button in your window manager setup, though I don't bother. -- Phillip Deackes Using Debian Linux /"\ \ / ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN X AGAINST HTML MAIL AND NEWS / \
