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
