This is a laser optical trackball that has 4-buttons and a patented scroll-ring surrounding the trackball itself.
The trackball is the size of a billards cueball and weighs about the same the cueball for precise movements. The scrollring makes navigating thorugh documents and web pages a breeze using the tip of your finger.
The finish is black and silver with a sparkling trackball. The cord is black and 6 foot in length with a USB connector on the end. There is a very comfortable removable wrist rest, which is black. And the ball is easily removed for cleaning also.
The trackball comes with an adapter that changes that USB connector into PS/2. There are two models of this type that Kensington sells, be sure you are looking at the 64325 when checking out their website or a store for details.
I successfully tested this Kensington Expert Mouse in both Fedora Core and FreeBSD. All buttons functioned along with the scrollring.
