Wico made the same trackball for a range of 8 bit computers in the early  
1980's, including the Commodore 64, Atari 400/800, and Coco. In response  
to another earlier post, it works with any program that was made for  
joysticks (although it would only work well for those that actually use  
the analog measurements 0-63 instead of just 0 or 63).
