[comp.sys.zenith.z100] Logitech Mouse and Z-100

CCSO-ALL@GUNTER-ADAM.ARPA (12/01/87)

Reference you questions about using the Logitech C-7 Mouse with a 
Z-100. There is a company named Paul F. Herman, Inc that sales a mouse
mouse driver for that combination. Although I haven't used either 
product, from talking with the local Zenith store it is suppose to be 
one of the best for the Z-100/Logitech combination. They have several
packages they sale with the driver, so it would be best to contact 
them directly. The address is:

	Paul F. Herman, Inc.
	3620 Amazon Drive
	New Port Richey, FL 34655
	Phone 1-800-346-2152 (orders only)
	      (Florida call 1-813-376-9347) (orders only)
	      1-813-376-5457 (technical assistance)

I have no association with this company, nor even use the Logitech mouse.

I have seen a copy of the Paul F. Herman Z-100 mouse support package
and I thought it was completely useless.   The package was a mouse driver
(included sources, I think) that allowed a MS or Logitecj mouse to 
interface to non-mouse programs (patches into the arrow and function keys).
The programs I tried it on only 2 of 5 did it work with.  

Now, unless the stuff is all new, and provides a MS-MOUSE driver interface
(the stuff I saw did not), then I would not recommend it.

I do recommend a MS-Mouse, or at least one that is hardware compatible
(are there any?, most are MS compatible thru the IBM-PC driver program
interface only).   I think Russ has released his COM version of the
Z-100 MS-Mouse Driver to the PD and I can stick it in the new PD LIB
(which is moments from its Grand Openning!).
