Looking for New Serial Mouse

[fredweis]

I have a few old computers I have to build for a like in the resturant business. He is running this old terminal and it requires the use of a serial mouse. I need 12 of these serial mouse and can't seem to find the darn thing around. I went to my local staples, officemax, bestbuy and circuit city but none of them happen to carry them. Anyone have any suggestions?

fredweis,

from my experience the serial to ps2 based mice don't always work. What you need to buy is a true serial mouse which has the serial port at the end. Not some ps2 to serial adapter connected at the end. These particular mice are very hard to find. YOu might be able to find them on the online auctions for cheap but its used and you never know what you get until you actually get them.

If you wanna buy these serial mice brand new there is this company that still carry them. Here is the link where I bought my serial mouse. Serial Mouse

You know, I worked at a place that had a bunch of these from old outdated systems, that they probably threw away. It may be a longshot, but you might want to try IT departments of decent size businesses near where you live. Good luck.


Edit: Doh! just re-read the heading sorry, they wouldn't be new, of course. nevemind.
