I need an OLD iMac mouse

[ibclare]

If anyone has a mouse that will work with a 9.22 OS iMac, I'd be happy to pay for shipping and for the mouse depending on the price.

New ones aren't compatible; even the local Apple Store squinted their eyes at me. I tried Craigslist and that was a dead end. At the moment I'm using some old Microsoft mouse that moves like it has rheumatism.

Why, you may ask, do I even keep the iMac around?

Though I have backed up most of my important files, sometimes I'll be looking for something and I know right where to find it or it's only stored there. I guess that will have to change soon though. It's a rather cumbersome storage "disk" and I'm sure I could donate it; it's a great computer & NEVER gave me any trouble. But in the meantime . . .

Thanks, Clare

Sorry Clare I think we donated the older stuff I thought I stored that stuff. Mybad!

lol, tx for looking iDad. I appreciate it. This MS mouse works, if grudgingly (must know it's hooked to a mac) and since it's not my primary computer, I guess it doesn't matter much.

We had some of apples first models probably worth some serious money now(what a dummy)

oh, i suppose it would be. Yesterday's grabage ... today's treasures. But who's gonna sort that out?!!

I do believe that older mac mice were being hacked for home arcade machine controls, The makes it even that much harder to find one.

Now that's an interesting tidbit Jenny.

Rumor has it . . .
