hey guys
im getting ready to build a dedicated World of Warcraft cabinet (not an arcade game i know) and im trying to decide on the best way for movement. as of right now i play on my laptop and use the arrow keys and buttons to strafe in certain instances. alot of the top players use mice for movement by clicking & holding the two mouse buttons and turning the mouse itself to turn the character as it moves. so my question is would using a trackball with two pushbuttons for the mouse buttons be a better option or would using a joystick? my concern with the joystick is strafing and turning around. any constructive input is much appreciated.

well thanks for no one having any ideas.
maybe someone can answer this then - im going to order the 2 1/4" trackball from ultimarc. what do i need to get, if anything, to mount it and wire it up? one page says it needs the wiring harness while another says it comes with it. do i need the mounting plate? id really appreciate some help.
