Folks,

The IIc mouse is equal electronically to the following mice:

II+/IIe/IIc/IIc+/Mac128/Mac512/Mac512K/Lisa Mouse; the Lisa Mouse and the
IIc differ slightly.  The Lisa Mouse looks like an art deco IIe Mouse, and
the IIc Mouse has metal bearings in it that makes it more valuable,
and durable to use (these are the only ones that I keep for myself) The
early Mac/IIe/II+ Mice are more attractive a cream color with a bigger
button.

A Kensington 9-Pin Turbomomouse is interchangeable with these mice, also
the mice can be used as an add on to these trackballs, hooked up in
sequence.

If anyone needs one I have a turbomouse FS for $25.00 + Shipping, it is
easier to use than the mouse, and will work as oted with the note that the
IIe and II+ folks need the mouse card installed to use the item.
