Greetings all,

BE WARNED: NOT ALL NeXT Machines use the ADB Mouse. Do not blindly try to plug
in an ADB Mouse (or worse, force one to fit in). Only the Turbo machines (which
are fairly rare on the salvage market) use ADB Connectors. You probably have a
Non-Turbo box. You will likely need an actual NeXT Mouse... umm..

finding one around here is tough. I've got a bunch of NeXT Keyboards, no mice
though. You could try the U of M Property Disposition, they've had the same
NeXT gear sitting there for a few *years*. but it is all insanely overpriced,
like $200 just for a NeXT Slab. Yikes!

I've had a great deal of experience with these boxes, so let me know if you
have any other questions

Fuerst
