Us trackball users need some fucking love! - GoFuckYourself.com

I'm the only person that I know of that uses a trackball. Everyone that I ask thinks I'M the weirdo for using one. I've used one for well over 12 years and I prefer them over mice. I've been using the Logitech Cordless Optical TrackMan for the past few replacements and the Microsoft one before that. There really isn't much of a variety to choose from.

FUCK YOUR MICE!

I've used them for years.My old billiard ball cordless trackman fx lasted about 8 years,the newer ones aren't the same

Mice are a fucking joke - if you use a mouse it's only because you are too much of a pussy to get over a day of weirdness with a trackball - but once you get the thumb muscles used to the ball you will find you are far more accurate and about TWICE as fast with pin point screen navigation than the dinosaur known as a mouse - ESPECIALLY if you have 2 big screens. And best of all ZERO wrist fatigue or carpel tunnel.

I have been using my Logitech wired trackmaster for years. Kind of bummed, it really needs a good cleaning and the wireless ones just don't feel right. Plus I'd probably lose it.

I've been a trackball kid forever

I tried them but they were cheap the ones I see now I may have to try them out again.

I rocked a Kingston trackball for about a year. Loved it, but found it hard to go back and forth to a regular mouse when I travelled (I was travelling a lot at the time.) Haven't really gone back, not sure why. Hm.
