- For Immediate Release
-
- ELEGANT MOUSE PORT EXPANSION FOR PLUS OWNERS
-
- Tucson, AZ. Practical Solutions, Inc. announces Mouse Master, a
- new product for the Macintosh Plus (and previous) computers. This new
- device enables easy switching between any one of three alternate input
- devices (such as a joystick, mouse, or trackball). The attractive, compact
- unit with custom molded case and cable features an LED display to show the
- input port selected, and an automatic reset which returns the device to the
- primary port upon restart. Mark Sloatman, company president states,
- "Macintosh Plus owners don't have the convenience of ADB for input devices,
- therefore they have to constantly fumble with cables when changing from
- one input device to another. We feel that this provides an elegant solution to
- a common problem."
-
- The state-of-the-art Mouse Master utilizes solid-state CMOS
- circuitry to switch all lines and power via one, easy-touch push button for
- simplicity of operation. Engineered to comply with the hardware
- specifications of the Mac, Mouse Master needs no external power supply or
- battery, and is completely compatible with all mouse replacements.
-
- Practical Solutions also includes a collection of labels to allow
- the user to choose their own port identification rather than rely on the
- commonly used "A B C". The sets range from graphic icons to text identifying
- several of the more popular input devices (e.g. ProPoint, Kraft Joystick, and
- Turbo Mouse). Several blanks are also provided for custom user
- identification.
-
- Priced at $69.95 retail, Mouse Master is in stock now, and offers a
- one year warranty. Practical Solutions also provides unlimited technical
- support.
-
- As Sloatman says, "There is more to life than just the standard mouse."
