Hooray - thanks, and thanks Carl and Andy. It's now dead!

One machine where I will use it in preference to a trackpoint is on the
Dell that one of my clients uses; apparently Dell bought rights to some
but not all of the  trackpoint patents and it's almost unusable to a Tpad
enthusiast.

  With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
  necessarily  a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are
  going to land, and it could  be dangerous sitting under them as
  they fly overhead.  -Request for Comments: 1925 IOOF
