Can anyone tell me how to convert a 2-button Atari tracball to work
in an Amiga mouse-compatible fashion?  There's a place out here selling
the tracballs for $6 a pop, and I'd really like to turn a couple into
mice:
1) Playing some games without having to run out of mousepad room would
   be NICE [i.e. Gridiron!, WGH]
2) Having a $6 replacement mouse is REAL NICE

Please send EMAIL unless you think it is of general interest.
Also, if c.s.a.tach is inappropriate to this, steer it back to c.s.a.

Thanks.
