No, I still think that using a ball made out of tacks would be painful. Sort
of like a porcupine-trackball.

(I use a trackball myself, built into the keyboard... the only thing
it's not as good as a mouse for is playing Neverball, but I suck
mightily at that anyway so it's a very small loss. It's fine for World
