They just don't make 'em like they used to. Eight or so years ago, I had a Logitech Cordless Trackman Trackball. I loved it. Heavy usage, never missed a beat. It was in the box with my computer that never made it to Illinois. Since at the time it was like a 75.00 piece of equipment, I didn't even attempt to replace it. Well, a few months back, Chris and I ran into one at the Tiger Direct store, and he insisted on getting it for me. They've come down *slightly* in price, but they still run about sixty bucks. Well, now it's peeling. There seems to be some sort of membrane on it, that evidently I managed to get a tear in, and now it's coming off. I swear it looks like a human after a heavy sunburn. It looks positively scabrous..and doesn't feel all that great to use, either. I posted a query on the Logitech forums before I left for work today, but I'm thinking I'll end up having to peel all of this stuff off...which probably won't do much for the looks of this trackball... It doesn't affect the performance at all, it just looks like I've mistreated it severely.
