The 1-Wire interface I've designed includes pads for a DS2417.  I'm
currently running the circuit on a breadboard, but I should have circuit
boards soon.  It plugs into the joystick connector inside the computer.

(The minimum interrupt interval for the DS2417 is one second, though, so it
wouldn't be usable for generating the periodic interrupts a preemptive
multitasker needs.)
