Summary: Slot 4 mouse



The gs mouse can be accessed directly forom the bus, freeing slot 4. The
problem is compatibility. The older programs won't use it, so you'd have to
switch if newer programs did. It's a compromise. There should have been a
better mehtod (perhaps routing the mouse to psuedo slot 4 in 8 bit mode?),
but
there was not. Maybe the rumored GS plus will fix this..
