True, but as far as I know AMouse is supplied with the AT BridgeCard (2286?)
and not with the XT BridgeCard (2288?) as part of Rel 2.0 of the Bridge
Software.  I don't think the Bridge software is currently sold alone. So,
how does a 'older' Bridgecard user get hold of the new software, if at all
possible?  Inquiring minds want to know :-)
