Dear JBK4@psuvm.psu.edu,

 let me quote your message of <24 Apr 91  01:10:30>
 about <Will a C=1351 mouse work with an Amiga?>, where you write:

 JB>
 JB> I have an Amiga 3000 and a C64-C with a 1351 mouse.  Both my Amiga
 JB> mouse and my  1351 mouse look the same but I didn't want to risk
 JB> sticking the 1351 into my A miga and having something fry.  So my
 JB> question is, Can I use a Commodore 1351 m ouse(made for the 64) with
 JB> my Amiga 3000 or any other Amiga? Thanks.


You can use a 1351 with Amiga, but you must use the PCB of an
original Amiga mice: the mechanical part is the same, but the electronic
circuit is very different: basically, the 1531 emulate the paddles.

I have replaced the broken mechanic of my old Amiga mouse with the mechanic
and case of a cheap 1351 mouse and now it works fine!
