Former Large Trackball User,
I used to use the trackballs with “Cue Balls” and wheels. When my last one gave out (I bought a bunch on sale) my mate bought this one. I was sceptical because of the small ball. I do engineering work and I need precise movements. I used this for a few hours before I decided I’d never go back. Plus the optical technology is a lot easier to clean than the rubber wheels of the old style trackballs. And the price is very right.

By any name, it’s mightier than the mouse.,
Originally called the Logitech Marble Mouse Trackball, the TrackMan Marble Trackball is the superior alternative to the mouse. Unlike a mouse, it sits in one place and your fingers use that big burgundy ball to move the pointer. Your thumb does the clicking and once you get accustomed to it, using a mouse will seem quaint and clunky.
Long before the optical mouse rose to fame, Logitech was already employing optical technology in the TrackMan Marble and its siblings. Pop out the ball and you’ll find a small rectangular window. Behind that window are an infrared LED and the sensor. Together, they track the movement of the marble’s leopard spots. It might not be as sexy as the bright red glow of a conventional non-laser optical mouse but it gets the job done with more precision and comfort. The TrackMan Marble is even ambidextrous, allowing lefties to use it as easily as righties.
If you’re wondering about scrolling without a wheel, it all depends on the operating system. With the Logitech Control Center software installed on a Mac, the mini-buttons scroll up and down. With Windows running Logitech SetPoint, configure the mini button nearest your thumb for Autoscroll. This turns the ball into a variable-speed scroll control that’s as easy to master as a wheel.

Great mouse! Logitech keeps making winners.,
Since I had to give up my PS/2 port Trackman Marble FX mouse, this model was the only alternative. The design is gentle on the hand. It is perfect for lots of clicking, whether you work with Photoshop or with lots of cells in Excel worksheets, your hand will thank you. It is accurate too. The price is reasonable, thus making it a good alternative to the USB version of the Trackman Marble FX, which goes for $150 and is no longer easily found in most stores. Once you try this style of mice, the other models are simply no longer a choice.
