I have a
short 8-bit card with a strange mouse socket. It could be
a Zenith card as I found it in an old Zenith PC case piled up inside
with other cards which obviously didn't belong to the Zenith.
It has a DE9 monitor connection with a mono/color switch below it
and a port labelled "mouse" below that. It is a DIN with 9 staggered
holes but smaller than your standard k-b socket and larger than a
PS/2 or Mac one. Internally it has 2 game and one light-pen
connectors. It's most significant chip is a 100pin surface mounted
6612. The only removable chip is labelled AM2764ADC, and 838AE9G.
Most of the other chips are logoed GS. There is a # written with
marker pen S88101035. Did Zenith have a proprietory mouse at some
point or is this another beast entirely. I notice that most of the
GS low-powered Shotsky chips are labelled some multiple of H eg:
H10, H18, H38 etc. which makes me think Zenith/Heath.
puting a (bus)mouse and a EGA/VGA on one board sounds a
lot like ATI - just they clearly marked all boards with
their logo :(
No idea.
Sorry
H.
Yeah usually ATI clearly identifies itself. The thing about this board
that intrigues me is the mouse socket. It's like a slightly larger Mac
or PS/2 socket. Are there many other unusual mouse plugs. For
example I've never seen a Sun mouse but imagine it's similiar to
Mac or Next plugs. Possibly I'm knowledge-deficient when it
comes meeses :^} Curses on proprietory mfg.
