The Marconi Marcus RB2 trackerball is an alternative to a mouse. Marconi made version for the BBC Micro, Amiga, Apple Mac, Atari ST and IBM PC (Serial and Bus). This is the RB2/-101 which is connects to the BBC Micros's user port. Acorn rebadges the RB2 and sold it as the Acorn Trackerball with the Domesday System.

In September 1985 Acorn User published a review of the Marconi RB2 Tracker Ball titled "On the Ball ".
