I keep reading about how much better the SE is for lefties because you can
plug the mouse in on either side. What people seem to be forgetting is that
on the plus & earlier models, the mouse plugs into the back & has a long cord.
The pluses mouse can be placed on either side of the plus simply by draping    
the cord to either side of the Mac. The pre-plus keyboard went even farther &
allowed you to put the numaric keypad on either side of the alpha keyboard.

While on the subject of mice, I for one prefer the Plus & earlier mouse to 
the SE & later design. It seems to fit my hand better & I do not grip it as
tight. Course now, could be that I like it because I have been using that
style mouse now for 5 years & the other style just when I borrow a newer Mac.

This will probably blow what image I have, but, anyone know of a joy stick
that will fit pre SE Macs?
