It works fine for me and emulates either Microsoft or Mouse Systems mice. It is three button, 300 dpi resolution. It works fine with the mouse systems driver under X386 and you get 3 buttons that way. It also works fine under the microsoft driver, but you only get 2 buttons that way. I've also heard that Dexa mice are okay cheap mice. You can probably get one at your local HyperMart (that's where I've seen them around here). ++Brett;
