Howy Isk...long time no chat..Actually I think the Digital mice are
rather nice having 3 button, and independent horizontal and vertical
tracking sensors...would make for great rotational tracking. but you
are right they are rather strange looking till you get use to them.

And how about the clicking scheme? (and this is from memory I don't
use a DECstation, I have a NeXT....but this is how I remember it)

Clicks:
1) character
2) Word
3) line
4) paragraph (page?)
5) screen   (display aka buffer?)

Something to that extent......
