<refraining from laughter j/k>

You mean a mouse with a ball as opposed to an optical mouse?
- then the earliest? and the latest of the sparc mice are non-optical and
can be found from most workstation providers as well as ebay. I may even
have a spare one around (I prefer the optical mouse).
If you mean the scroll controlling wheel, I have yet to see one
myself.  However I know belkin? and some other KVM switch makers have
sparc adapters for there KVM switches, you can try that (Expensive to
just test imho) If that does work using a normal PS2 type mouse with scroll
wheel, just have to configure the X on the sun box to utilize the wheel,
assuming of course the KVM doesn't have to parse that info out for compat
or something.

Hope it helps a little,
-Kevin
