I've been fighting with my Apple mouse for months now and I'm finally fed up with it. The problem is in choosing an alternative. I know what I want, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere. Maybe someone out there can help me. This is what I want: Multiple buttons(preferably 3 buttons) The ability to configure the buttons to whatever you want(via CDEV or whatever..) What would be really cool was if you could configure it seperatly for different applications, ie one setup for the finder, another for word processing, another for a good game etc.... A mouse that "feels good". I've tried Logitech's newest 3 button mouse for the IBM but it doesn't fit my hand(its about 1 inch to short) Preferably less than $100 If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd much appreciate it. thanx Steve hasses@prism.cs.orst.edu

Steve A friend of mine has a Kensington Trackball and he seems to be very happy it. No mouse pad, two buttons and very maneuverable.... Steve Fuller xdpq8@vaxf.cc.iastate.edu

I use the Mouse Systems A^3 mouse. You can set the buttons via a CDEV to do
whatever key sequence you want. I use it for X-windows; it comes preset for
that.

Or do you have to use a Macro Package of some kind? Ken Warner
