Well I wandered last Saturday through my local friendly Maplin, a
dangerous store if ever there was one for my wanderings, laden as I tend
to leave with yet more widgets and gadgets and cables and connectors,
and my roving eye fell on this:

wondering who would ever want such an abomination, as surely the only
way to drive your laptop cursor is with an trackpoint nipple mouse. 

Oh bring back the days of ye olden powerbook :
