   Please note that the tiff file I have seen "kicking around" only  
applies to the *GRAY* ball LogiTech Bus Trackman, which I haven't been  
able to find in stores for a few months.  LogiTech's new Trackman products  
have *BLUE* balls, which, according to their customer service line, has an  
entirely different interface.  The old, gray ball Trackman (I have one on  
my desk) came with a plug in card for your PC compatible (which you didn't  
use with your NeXT) -- the new one doesn't, which implies to me a  
significant architectural change.  I would be very surprised if the old  
modifications worked with the new products.

   You may still be able to find gray ball Trackmen on the shelves of some  
stores, but you may have to hurry.
