Is anyone out there using 3-button mice with MacX? If so, who makes it(them), and how much hacking, if any, does it take to make it work properly? Many Thanks, Kevin Brock brock@sumex-aim.stanford.edu -------

I use the Logitech and Advanced Gravis 3-button mice on a routine basis in my home and office with MacX. Also, Logitech makes a 3-button trackball which has identical characteristics, for those who like such things. All of these work seamlessly as 3-button mice in MacX. Outside MacX, they can be programmed using software supplied by the manufacturer to do lots of interesting things on mouse button press, release, chording, etc. I have no particular reason to prefer one manufacturer over the other except that the Gravis folks (in Canada) supported me EXTREMELY WELL while I was beta testing their device. The Logitech folks have been a trifle less supportive, but not in an incapacitating way: I have had little or no problems with either manufacturer's product, so support has been of minimal concern to me. I just like the fact that the Gravis folks were so nice. Hope this answers your question. |> Kevin Brock |> brock@sumex-aim.stanford.edu |> ------- -- Alan Mimms (alan@apple.com, ...!apple!alan) | My opinions are generally A/UX X group | pretty worthless, but Apple Computer | they *are* my own...
