	I don't know what you saw, but the mouse to get for a C64/C128
is the 1351 from Commodore.

	It has two modes supporting software which expects a joystick (
ie it can act just like a joystick ), and new software which requires
a true proportional mouse ( GEOS can use this ).    

	The mouse is well documented. The 1351 comes demo programs and 
source on a disk, and with full explainations in the manual.

	Do not confuse it with the 1350 mouse which is a joystick only
product, or other mice on the market ( which simply are not as good. ).

	The proud 1351 designer.
