A bus mouse was a manufacturer specific card that plugged into an ISA slot. For ISA-based computers, this freed up a com port and possibly a low interrupt. Of course, the implementation varied from manufacturer to manufacturer (and I still get lockups on some bus mice in some environments but not FreeBSD). ====================================== When philosophy conflicts with reality, choose reality.
