The gs uses an ADB mouse (Apple Desktop Bus). It plugs directly into the side of the keyboard (or directly into the back of the gs if you dont use your keyboard :). The gs also COMES WITH a mouse, so if you bought one someday, you could just as well sell your mouse with your //e (assuming you are selling it for an upgrade).
