	You can use a Mac cable. The connector is called an ADB connector. If you
look at the keyboard you'll see the same connector is available on both
sides. You can plug the mouse into one and the ADB cable into the other.
FYI you can also use a Mac ADB mouse.

	Some discussions about this when the GS came out. The answer is no.
