[long spaceball thing snipped]
OW!  You know, I was really interested in what this "spaceball" thing
was until I read this...

Let's see, -5 points for saying "herky, jerky", -2 points for saying
"6-degrees of freedom" (with an additional minus 1 for mis-hyphenating
it) -4 points for unnecessary use of the prefix "cyber"...
(not to mention double penalty for repeating it later, complete with
typo "HOT herky, jerky...?"

All this marketroid crud aside, has anyone actually USED one of these?
Do they work well?
