Curious question: did MS actually develop that? Or did they outsource it in
some way, have someone else build it, and then place their label on it?

The mouse or scroll wheel
is the counter-example I give when people say Microsoft never invented any
technology. Unfortunately, I can't come up with a second counter-example, but
then a mathematician only needs one.
The trackball was invented in
1952, before the mouse and long before Microsoft. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

My logitech trackball stopped working. My wife talked me into getting an MS one
to replace it. BAD move. I don't like it, and nobody else I've offered it to
likes it either.
(I've still got one working logitech trackball - PS2 unfortunately - and use a
mouse in preference to the MS rubbish!)
Cheers,
