Can I use a PS/2 spinner & a USB mouse at the same time?
Ravant:
Here's a quick question... say I'm not running any version of windows... I've just stripped the PC down to a version of FreeDos and am shelling directly into a dos MAME front-end... could it be possible to have the spinner and ball connected simultaneously?

Absolutely, as long as you still aren't talking about USB! :)
Download http://www.oscarcontrols.com/files/MOUSE.EXE. This is a dual mouse DOS driver that works with PS/2 and serial mice simultaneously. For the help file, type ' mouse /?' at the command prompt in the directory where you downloaded the driver. For basic operation, all you should need is something like "c:\mouse\mouse dual".

Only serial and PS/2. I refuse to submit to the omnipotence of USB yet... I'm a nostalgic psychopath that would still use a 5-pin DIN if I had the chance. Come on, I still have my TRS-80 Color Computer II. :-P
