Someone mentioned the RT mouse has two round buttons. I have had this mouse
in my collection and have been wondering what it was for.

The connector is a 6 pin square. Can anyone ID it?

Based on the fact that the keyboard cutout of the RT's back panel is
shaped like the (huge) insulator on the interface, and the mouse in the
picture has a (huge) insulator [my terminology fails me here; sorry]
that matches the mouse port's cutout, I vote it's an RT mouse.
What DO ya call that huge chunk o' rubber right behind the male end,
anyway?

Wouldn't it be easier to try a Google search, or a search on the IBM
website for whatever model number should be on the bottom of the mousey?
