Growing up, my family computer was set up with a very specific model of Logitech trackball, the one shaped like a standard mouse with the off-center ball that rests under your fingers, not your thumb.
It's the only trackball of its kind I've ever seen, every other model is either a tiny thumb-ball, or an enormous whole-hand deal.
They stopped making them years ago, and now you can only find them from scalpers on Amazon for upwards of $4-500.
It's frustrating, because I'd love to get back to using a trackball, but every other model seems less comfortable to me than a normal mouse.

I use a Logitech Cordless Optical TrackMan [1] alongside my Kinesis Advantage.
