It's also handy for simulating the 'shift key mod'. The mouse on the
//c is internally wired to PB2 on the gameport, like the shift key is
on modified ]['s or can easily be done on a IIe (The platinum IIe had
it factory installed)

Can anyone else 'feel' the slight clunkiness the mouse introduces on
the //c ? It has a dumb hardware implementation that slightly modifies
the game port signalling to work with a mouse as well, and consequently
machine cycles are stolen by the mouse firmwares interrupt handlers.
