I picked up the Pointing Device cdev from the net a few days ago and I think
it's great. As far as I can understand, it is also free (no shareware or other
fees). Today I also got the february number of MacUser where the Kensington
Turbo Mouse trackball is reviewed. Here I am told that Kensington on direct
order only sells the Turbo Mouse cdev for $15. This is obviously exactly the
same program as the Pointing Device cdev (apart from the ICON displaying a
trackball instead of  an arrow). Why, even the version number is the same
(1.2). Why should one have to pay for something that is free?
