Ok, here goes. Assuming I buy a Keywiz adapter for my layout (I've decided for the missionary version of 6 buttons, 2-3 joysticks and a mouse), will I still be able to buy a PS/2 mouse?? I think Keywiz sucks up the PS/2 slot, am I right? And ulnlike USB, there's no way of adding PS/2 slots, is there? I mean, I want a trackball, but I don't want the Optipac hassle. I was thinking joysticks to the keyboard encoder, mouse to the PS/2.,.. and if that's all possible? Does that leave a USB spinner option?? Please advise. Tony |

And you can do a USB spinner, yes. A KeyWiz for buttons & joys, a PS/2 trackball, and a USB spinner is a dandy combo- you'll be fine. |

No problems as others have said, But if you didn't want an Opti-pac and didn't want to pay the extra for a PS/2 trackball, you could use a standard t-ball and an www.oscarcontrols.com $10 USB mouse pre-hack. |
