I'm curious about the 3-button mouse... (haven't seen one for a long

you might have seen one and not even known it. Many mice
with a scroll wheel support pressing the scroll wheel as a 3rd
button. its not nearly as pleasant as a real button, but it "works".
Using a clickable scroll wheel nearly cripples my fingers; have any
9fans tried this mouse?

Some scroll wheels are all right and it's nice to have them. I use
this quite happily, although you wouldn't want to use it if you have
big fingers.

it's funny what mice are good and what are bad for plan 9.
My netbook's trackpad is unacceptable for Plan 9 use, and since it
doesn't have a PS/2 port I can't plug in one of my old Logitechs.
