- I've got a mouse called "Aero Mouse" which was dirt cheap. It works
- fine for me and emulates either Microsoft or Mouse Systems mice. It
- is three button, 300 dpi resolution. It works fine with the mouse
- systems driver under X386 and you get 3 buttons that way. It also
- works fine under the microsoft driver, but you only get 2 buttons
- that way.
-
- I've also heard that Dexa mice are okay cheap mice. You can probably
- get one at your local HyperMart (that's where I've seen them around
- here).
