Ultimarc Trackball: PS/2 Vs Opti-pac ??
rockmes:
l did have a Ultimarc trackball that l bought from Chris at Ozstick with the ps2 mouse hack that he makes for it- it works well. But recently l got my hands on a 3" Beston Imperial trackball and l must say " it kills the Ultimarc one". it rolls better and its feels higher and easier to use. l am currently making a mouse hack for it instead of using an opti-pac. My current spinner is using a hacked mouse serial port which works great. So really there is no need for an opti-pac if you can go to the trouble of making the interface, its easy. There are a few web sites that show you how to do this.
