	Uh, perhaps I missed something along the line, but I seem to
remember the GS as having only one ADB port, and the mouse not having
any place to plug another ADB device into.  This means that only one
mouse is capable of being attached without some sort of custom-built
"Y" connector in the daisy chain.

	This can be done on a Mac, since it has the two ADB ports.
Just being picky.  If you do manage to attach two mice, you will find
it doesn't really help anything.  It can even get more confusing.
