Technically you are not threadcrapping since this is not the Classifieds but you are definitely threadpooping.
Go away.
I'm pooping when I talk about anything off topic. Thus I have sinned... Throw me stones.
I'm realistic and dead on topic when I challenge the way you measure DPI.
But who gives a sh!t if a trackball from the 90's (Kensington EM or CH DT225) does 400dpi or 3200dpi or if the 2010 model only does 1600?
"A wiki enables communities to write documents collaboratively. (...) A wiki is essentially a database for creating, browsing, and searching through information. A wiki allows for non-linear, evolving, complex and networked text, argument and interaction."
So we will have a trackball wiki
Now we just need to find a community.
"Kensingtons Expert Trackball and SlimBlade Trackball DPI Sucks Donkey Balls" Is a bold statement and no science to support it. By pooping on your statement, I gave it more attention than it deserves. I guess folks who gave so many awards to the Kensington trackballs had something else in mind. Plus I have been a Kensington fan for quite a while. (Big balls Kensington... Never really liked the Orbits)
Our beloved keyboard wikis are closely tied to the specs of the moving parts and electronics behind it.
If you like your trackballs so much, why don't you use the same rigor and highlight the brand and model of the sensors with the documented specs from the manufacturer?
We're told MX switches are good for 50M cycles. Did any of us proved it with arbitrary techniques? No
We just post what Cherry says about it.
I say find the brand and model of the trackball sensors and report back the official specs about them.
Light the fire, I think I see a boat.
Sorry Ripster, I didn't say goat
Lets have a Missile Command challenge to set the record straight for who's the king of the trackball.
