I thought about not using a mouse at all. Bus-mice aren't very cheap in Australia and I don't really want to buy a serial card plus new bus mouse. Even if I did get a bus-mouse, I'd have to get another cable or adaptor to get a db25 cable to work with a 9pin socket. I have to get a 16550 uart on a serial port for the modem, as background transfers don't work too well with the standard 8450 on the multifunction card. - Bill
