Poor little ps2. Just 'cos it's not fashionable.

This. Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical w/ a PS2/USB adapter works great. The WMO is probably the most common USB mouse there is. Stores by me have bins of them for $5 each. So USB & Optical on the ST is already a reality and a good one if you have a PeST.

I am looking into this small addon.
I posted in another topic a picture of a usb/ps2 serial card the card is now working on my TT thanks to Dal.

Since this post I have the card working with a ps2 trackball on my TT.
Works well. Thanks Dal again.
If this is useful to others then I'm sure it can be reproduced easily enough.

Pest by any other name is still a PEST in disguise!
