IBM trackpoint Mouse - Nub? Trackpoint? Thing
« on: Wed, 04 April 2018, 15:12:20 »
Has anyone ever made or knows of a TrackPoint mouse,
One that is either still in production or one that can be built,
If you dont know what I am talking about this thing:


I would like to be able to build one that is a seproate small mouse,
or mabey encorproate one in a build (I know of the Tex Yoda)

I have some ruff scetches (note did this in about 5 minutes)


Thanks,

A standalone clit mouse?
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."
