Radio Shack has a serial mouse for $49.00 that has a great feel to
it. It fits the hand much better than the ST mouse and the buttons aren't
as stiff. However, I think before I change from the Atari mouse that I'd
like to get an optical one but admit not knowing if it would work or not.
At any rate, I notice that the Radio Shack mouse does not have the
same pin configuration as the Microsoft one. In fact, it is only using
five of the nine pins that are available on its connector.
Jeff Beadles, I've tried replying to your message in which you
explained the mouse setup but my messages keep bouncing back. SIGH. We
are needing to use SERIAL mice, right?
