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?
