Look at what arrived on my doorstep: The Microsoft Easyball, forgotten trackball of the 90's geared towards kids.
Still works, has a serial connection and only one button.
Time to play some Freddi Fish!

I'm surprised at how much this looks like an egg. :)

Clickbait. I thought it was something that would help me with my crotch irritation during these hot summer months, but it's really about a trackball...

That's awesome. I still have two Microsoft Trackball Explorers, one for spare parts, that I've used for the past 25 years.
