[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Mac plus mouse failure

Well, I suppose it had to happen eventually.  My mouse for my Plus just died.
Sigh.  Fortunately, I have a joystick to save me from using Easy Access until
I find a fix.  The problem:  There's evidently a fatigued wire in the cable
which corresponds to the vertical sensor.  As a result, I can't move the cursor
up and down without holding the wire back along the case to bend the connection
closed.  I may attempt a repair, but there's this obnoxious Molex-type plug
inside, and I hate those things.  Anyone know how much a new furry rodent
costs?  Anyone had any experience with the Kensington Turbo Mouse?  Anyone?
