Keep in mind that there are three different versions of the 2600 trackball (VERSION #1) Black/Creme (to match the post 400-800 Atari computer colors) w/round fire buttons (Has switch on bottom for joystick or trackball setting). (VERSION #2) All black w/round fire buttons (No switch on bottom). (VERSION #3) All black w/triangular fire buttons (Have not physically had one, but assume same as all black version with improvements made to the lousey fire buttons) Do you have the Black/Creme version? Which was factory designed for both computers/VCS Steve Bender Collector of classic games and nifty toys -----Original Message----- From: Chris Cracknell <ad329@xxxxxxxx> To: stella@xxxxxxxxxxx <stella@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wednesday, February 03, 1999 12:08 PM Subject: Re: [stella] Trak-ball >In article <3.0.1.32.19990203165922.00a34d50@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, you wrote: >>Is the VCS trak-ball compatible with the ST mouse?
