you bought a pair of i/o compatible mice . . . on purpose!?!!!!!! tired of driving to the store for replacements? :rolleyes: and you thought 'zaboxes multiplied quickly!i'm amazed they sell mice as pets down there now that i think about it. have you gotten the rabbit problem under control, btw? i guess there'd be no way to control mice and rats, or were there already some placental varmints down there already? jt ™.

The bunnies are still a problem - kinda under a vague sort of control atm... and since the country was claimed by a bunch of brits in -boats-... rats, mice, cockroaches & the like would have started colonising the place about the same time they did... dana Quadra 605 Obsessions

Are they ADB or USB? And I am almost afraid to ask where you plug the cable in... AnubisTTP, Tank Commander, Bolo Division

Delightful mammalian domestic adjuncts there!! (with such cute feets)RE: I/O compatibility: Hmmm.. USB is more "Plug n Play" than ADB, but the "pin" count is wrong for either USB or ADB. Maybe they are coax???? In any case, definitely hot-pluggable! But the real questions are: are they one-button or two-button mice? Are 68k drivers available? Do you need a mouse pad for them? I just had a fun hack idea. Rig the optical encoder from a "real mouse" to their exercise wheel and write a little Hypercard script to log the change in mouse location over time. You could either have it log the data to a text file or paint a fun little graph of their activity. G4From128k by Day: Mild-Mannered Engineer and Trapeze(tm) Artist

LOL! a MacMouseSpa/RodentRecRoom hack! ADB rules, you just can't beat good old fashioned i/o. USB sucks! jt ™.

RCA plugs maybe? Maybe they're from some kinda ancient proprietry POS computer that became vapourware before leg warmers went out of style. -------------------------- Pizzabox LCs RULE!!!!!!! Warrior maclover5

Don't these creatures use GMTP (Genetic Material Transport Protocol)? After hand-shaking there is a ping. Latency on the ping is about 20 days and results in the delivery of an average of 6 packets. These packets can recursively execute GMTP after a month or two, resulting in exponential growth in kibble processing units.G4From128k by Day: Mild-Mannered Engineer and Trapeze(tm) Artist
