There is but one choice for mice. All others are toys.</p>
That choice is an optical mouse from:</p>

Mouse Systems Corp.</p>
47505 Seabridge Drive</p>
Fremont, CA 94538</p>

phone: 510.656.1117</p>

I recommend (and use) the PC Mouse III 3-button optical
model. (with NT)

The mice that ship standard with Sun Microsystems Computers are made
by http://www.macfaq.com/vendor/software/746.html
