You use a mouse? I'd have thought that was a bit
modern for you, Tony!
Oh, I have many machines with mice. I don;'t think I have anything that
uses a normal PC style PS/2 or USB or RS232 mouse, though. Mybe I do, I
think the Whitechapel Hitech takes an RS232 mouse, but I've not sorted
that one out yet.
Plenty of machines with quadrature mice : PERQ 3A, Whitechapel MG1,
Acorn Archimedes, Atari ST, Amiga. etc. And if you include Trackballs,
I've got several image display iuntis for the PDP11 that use them.
And HP-HIL mince (HP Integral, HP150-II, etc).
And the Kriz mouse on the PERQ 2s (but that's more of a graphics tablet,
I supose)
The PC I am typing this on doesn't ahve a mouse, though. WHat use would
it be on an MDA (text only) display?
