You know, now that I think about it, I never get past the first 10 minutes...in fact, its more like 5 seconds.
I never gave it a chance. Exact same Logitec with the programmable buttons.
I just bought a new convetional mouse.
Now, I'm thinking, I better look at it again...I have 30 days to try it out....thats the return policy.
Oh great, now I have to go back and try it myself or it will eat me up.
@VinceVirgil force yourself to use it for a few days. You still may not like it but I would give it a chance. I really hate mice. I have never found one I completely liked. This one is not perfect but the fact it is stationary is a lot less stress on the wrist and hand. The trackball is much faster than regular mouse hand motion once you adjust. Looking forward to when there are no mice and we control computers just by thinking.
"The day I became a winning trader was the day it became boring. Daily losses no longer bother me and daily wins no longer excited me. Took years of pain and busting a few accounts before finally got my mind right. I survived the darkness within and now just chillax and let my black box do the work."
One of the companies I worked for built control rooms for power plants. The track balls were of a size just a bit smaller than a bowling ball and fitted in such a way below the table that only a small part protruded above the desk. The operator rested the palm of his hand on this ball - the mouse buttons were positioned at his finger tips.
They worked very easy and smoothly. Guess that spoiled me. I don't know whether they still make them - probably not due to the cost.
A track ball the size of a bowling ball? Was the the monitor the size of a JumboTron?
Kidding, of course.
But that does sound expensive. Had to be some scientific reasons for a track ball to be so large. Precision, safety, reliabilty. Likely all 3 and more reasons that i cant think of.
