I recently had my computer start thinking the mouse button was down after I
had released it (I assume this is what the "mouse-up" problem is). The only
change I made in my system was exchanging my old mouse (one of the AP serial
numbered mouses with horrible tracking) for a new mouse (a heavy-ball mouse
made somewhere in south-east asia). This indicates to me that the problem is
in the mouse, not the software. Also, I'm using 6.0.5 on an SE/30.
