Some time back someone posted information on replacing switches internal to
the Amiga mouse. Would someone please email the information to me. You
never know what a six year old can do when he's addicted to Menace!!
Thanks.
George

I'd appreciate it if someone would post the answer to this. You never
know what a drunken college student can do to someone else's mouse
while beating Menace....

You > never know what a six year old can do when he's addicted to Menace!! > George Taylor - SWBT - Network Planning Hi, I had posted a message awhile back indicating that our club had purchased mouse button replacements (exact replacement parts). I think I have sent out about 40-50 sets of them to Usenet readers. We still have some (we bought a REAL big quantity :-)). We are selling them for $4.00 a set (this includes 2 switches, instructions and postage). If interested send money in small, unmarked bills (why does no one ever ask for large marked bills - "And bring the 1 million dollars in large easily identified $1,000 bills" :-)), actually anyform of payment is acceptable. Send to; George Gibeau Dept. of Biology ML-06 University of Cincinnati Cincinnati, Ohio 45221-0006 Regards, George (p.s. I guess Cincinnati does not rate in the top 17 advertising areas in the US so we do not get to see the new ads :-( ) -- UUCP: ucqais.uc.edu!ggibeau BBS: (513) 721-7977 GT NODE: 006/005 US Snail-Dept of Biology ML 06, University of Cincinnati, Ohio 45221 Knock, Knock.

I believe they sell >a suitable one (or two). Before you go doing anyting foolish (I know its only a couple bucks but...) I think you should know that there are at least three different models of the "amiga mouse". The switches in two of them are very similar but in the third they are quite different. In the third (most common and in my opinion best) you will see that the switches are small and square and black. In the others they are either a small micro switch that is unprotected (the previous one is under a rubber dome) or it's a (very cheap) two contact metalic buble under plastic (that' kind can't be fixed). So open it up and take a look. PAD -- My other .sig is a porche. Boongawa.
