Doesn't look that ergonomic to me.

We had these in the 90s. They were fantastic.

We're long overdue to bring back keyboard attached trackballs.

This seems like the next best thing, except they paid no attention to prior art.

The trackball belongs in the upper corner of the keyboard on the side of the dominant hand.

The young engineers these days don't even know how to attach a trackball to a keyboard correctly...

If anyone needs me, I will be outside yelling at the Cloud. (Because I am old and things were better back in my day.)

Edit: I gotta admit, those shots of it next to the spacebar look promising, actually...now that I've had my Werther's original to bring my blood sugar up.

    I do not see why you could not place it where you want it.
