Hello,

Something is going wrong with my mouse.
It only goes left to right but not up and down.

I suspect the cable is fraying internally, as I could twist it a little to get some response
but it is deteriorating rapidly.

I *urgently* seek a replacement for the following:

Mouse for a Sun 4 Keyboard.

SparcStation IPC with Solaris 2.4

The mouse I am using at present is a Logitech M-CD9-  Mechanical 5 volt, 6 milliamp.

It has an "Apple-style" plug on the end of it, but an Apple mouse will not do.

I will settle for an optical mouse (but only with pad)
but would prefer a good quality logitech mechanical mouse (must be new).

Has someone got one of these they can sell me?

Please reply!!!

Openwin is painful to use without a mouse!

TIA

rachel
