I have friend who uses a IIgs mouse with his Mac+.  He is a hardware buff and
thus quite easily bypassed the ADB board that is in the IIgs mouse.  This will
probably work for an SE/II mouse as well.

He also quite happly converted an old xerox 3-button optical mouse that I had
left over when we upgraded our 1108 to an 1186.

He has published the wiring changes needed to do this in europe on MacTel a
Mac Users bulletin board.

If people are interested I can download the details and post/mail them out.
