Simple question:

Does anyone make an adapter that takes a serial mouse (like for an IBM
PC) and converts it to ADB for the Mac?

If so, could you mail me their name and phone number?

If not, would you have any interest in one should I decide to build
them for sale?

Motivations for such a device are to allow multiple buttons for AUX
and MacX, and also to allow people to bind key strokes to the other
buttons for general mac applications.

Thanxs,

Mike Ciholas
