I have an mouse connected to my Apple IIc. My one states underneath, that it
is an "Apple Mouse IIe", model no. A2M2070.

It is probably, easier to get an mouse for the Apple IIGS than the IIe.
Besides, the IIGS has alot more applications which support the mouse,
including an full-fledged mouse-driven operating system.

I do not know if you can use the "original" Macintosh mouse, instead.

I hope, that helps...

Jeff.
