Christopher Robin Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I used to have a triple monitor setup back when 20' flat panels were considered a luxury but I traded them all in for a single wide aspect HD 30" panel. The PC, Keyboard, Speakers & Trackball are all still the same. 8 Like the Costume Creator? Enjoy a challenge? Love to WIN? You really should've clicked here before 6pm on Sunday the 18th!

Hyperstrike is correct, most trackballs you can buy are made by Logitech but that is a Microsoft Trackball Optical 1.0 above. They are discontinued now but will occasionally turn up on Ebay or Amazon from time to time (there are a few there from $50 - $200). Many (with larger hands) consider them the best trackball ever made. The closest thing I have found for people who still request them is made by a company called Elecom. It's cheaper and gets closer to an MTO than Logitech. Edited April 17, 2021 by Christopher Robin I had a much longer more detailed reply but this is not a tech forum so I left the main points and cut the rest. 2 2 Like the Costume Creator?
