I was so confused for a second, I thought someone was selling a black M13 with one of the old-stock industrial covers.

I read somewhere that the Unicomp made industrial M13's have a different pointing device that is NOT pressure sensitive, but rather actually moves a small distance.  That distance determines the speed of the mouse pointer.  I know we have more technical terms, but they do not come to mind at the moment.

Ok I guess the M13 has a strain gauge, and the Unicomp has a force sensing resistor.  I wonder if this industrial M13 has a force sensing resistor.

Most strain gauges are resistors. As you put more force on them, the resistance changes. The controller can convert this back into a force (or at least into a force difference from rest) and interpret it as input.

That said, I don't know how the unicomp ones are different from the lexmark ones.
