I was going through a box of office supplies just a little bit ago, and I came across something… unique.
A StarCraft: Ghost mousepad.
I can’t imagine that Blizzard made a ton of these, seeing as the game was in near-perpetual development hell before finally being killed a year and a half ago.
I have a mousepad for it.
I’ve played Ghost, by the way. Blizzard had it up and running at an EB Games vendor show a few years ago. I’m thinking it was Vendor Show 2004, in Orlando, when I was sick as a gorram dog. Because it was Vendor Show 2005 that I spent as much time as humanly possible playing Age of Empires III at the Microsoft booth.
I’ll have to check eBay and see what a StarCraft: Ghost mousepad might be going for. I don’t have use for it — trackballs don’t need mousepads. 😉

Wow. Do you have a picture of the mousepad? I can’t seem to find any pictures on the internet.
