Kensington "Expert Mouse" trackball
jcroach:
Hi!
Tiger-Heli:
With very few exceptions, PC trackballs are good for mousing, and arcade trackballs are good for gaming.
If you want it for navigating your Front End and occassional play of trackball games that aren't important to you, go ahead.
For $99, you could add a nice arcade trackball though (and that will work in Windows as well).

If your going to go with a Kensington track ball check out E-bay you can get one alot cheaper, that's how I got mine...
jcroach:
Do you use it for general PC usage or for gaming? did you modify it in any way?
Thanks for the advice on this! It looks like a great trackball, but maybe not really the best for a arcade cabinet. Especially at $99!

I wouldn't touch that for 100 bux if you want it for gaming. If you just want a trackball, and you'll play a game once in a blue moon ok, but otherwise, just get yourself a true arcade trackball. You can get a USB 3" Happ trackball off of Ebay for less than that and it's plug and play. You have plenty of options in the $100 range for a trackball... you'll have no problem getting one.
