If I remember right, the Trackpoint technology is IBM specific
as they have a patent for it. You will have to get an IBM keyboard
to get one of these. I did a quick search on the Internet for these
keyboards and I found one vendor:
http://www.cmpexpress.com
their part number: 386114 price: $165
Sounds rather pricey to me for a keyboard... *shrug*
If you are like me and do not want to spend that kind of cash for
a keyboard, maybe you should look at Touchpoint pads on keyboards...
the little window on the keyboard you can move your finger on to move
the mouse. These are a lot more reasonable...
