Just wondering what I have here. . . Anyone seen it before?  Can't find much despite searching.

Top picture is yellowish because of no flash, it's actually not yellow at all under normal lighting.

I've seen it in a thrift shop. It's trash.


Well this one was in excellent condition and it's a pretty smooth trackball when I tested out it's function so I highly doubt the legitimacy of your opinion.  If it were trash it wouldn't roll better than my Kensington, just saying.

I tried two and one quite similar. None of them worked well. Maybe it was because all of them were broken but that wouldn't surprise me due to my experience with devices by Genius.


Yeah, I may have just gotten lucky. . . they probably don't hold up to a lot of extended use.

That Marble Mouse from 1995?  Well if that's true then Genius had a time machine.  This puppy is from 1991.

I'm telling you, the ball feels smooth as **** and I've opened it up. . . it's got six different steel ball bearings (1x directly forward, 1x directly right and four positioned under the ball with 1x upper right and 3x bottom left).  It's got the usual two rollers for x and y.

Anyway, it's a no jumping trackball.  I will have to take some pictures of the ball bearings and internals.
