Serial mouse adaptor connects to serial port!?!
« on: November 26, 2002, 03:43:30 PM »
I have just bought a serail mouse adaptor (Mouse-It).
I assumed it would fit in the mouse port, but of course
it fits in the serial port.  How can I use my modem?
Is there a splitter lead available?  Can 2 devices work
simultaneously on the serial port?  
If the answer is no, I may consider buying a PCMCIA
modem.  Are these compatible with the A1200 PCMCIA slot?
I have seen drivers, but they may be old.  What am I to do??!

That sounds like the solution.  How much do you want for it?

I mean Nibbler's Surf Squirrel,  PortJunior is not
an option, I have an Ioblix 1200P in the clock port.
Making inquiries about the 1200S and the Clock-up
port expander though.

Thanks guys,  EZmouse it is then.  Not sure if I'll
get a refund though,  maybe he'll give me credit on
a game or something.  Napalm, maybe...
