| Happ USB Trackball vs Optipac Combo |
| (1/1) |
| brophog:
Interesting conundrum I face. Anyone have any opinions on the following: Happ USB/PS2 trackball unit -OR- Happ Trackball plus Optipac. Price through Ponyboy is roughly equivalent. I'm more wondering if anyone has any input on performance of the optipac vs Happ's interface. |

Opti-PAC is probably more flexible because you can hang 2 trackballs and 4 spinners off of it. Plus it has that auto-switching thing that only activates the first device moved (check out the Opti-PAC documentation for more info). On the other hand, USB is far easier to hook up and if you're thinking of picking up a SlikStik Tornado spinner (or two), they cannot be directly connected to the Opti-PAC without a bit of hacking. Personally, I own an Opti-PAC. But I like to tinker. USB is just too easy. ;D |

I've got two of the USB trackballs and they work very well for what that's worth. |

Might be a day late and dollar short with my two cents, but we're using a Betson Imperial USB purchased from DreamArcades.... cost less than Happs, 3 inches, and so far (since summer) has held up under extreme play very well (myself and my 3 year old)!! |
