Does anyone know if you can play Popcap games like ZUMA with a spinner?  This would make my better half very happy   ;D

I don't think that would work because in zuma, you use the x and y axis of the mouse. Awesome game though.

I can confirm what shardian is saying.  You need X and Y axis of the mouse.  You could use a trackball, but mouse is more efficient in this game.

Unfortunately not..

Although the game is pretty fun with a trackball...  A friend of mine and my brother played it for hours straight..

I actually really like it with a trackball, also put it on the touchscreen bartop I built for jimjim, although if you think about how it plays on a touchscreen it's pretty much cheating.  >:D
