comment
" ...  I've used a Logitech trackball rather than mouse for at least the past decade because I find it easier to use, more comfortable, more precise, and less prone to causing carpal tunnel than any mouse, regardless of how that mouse communicates with my computer.  ...  "

THAT is how you know whether you got the Windows XP-Windows 8 version or the Windows 10 version that goes back to Vista but not XP (though the latest SetPoint version, 6.69.126, only works on 7, 8, and 10). ... If you ARE on Windows 10, though, I'd get the one with newer software and ongoing support-that's just my 250-500 cents worth.  ...  "
