 This mouse is not intended for Amigas! It's an Atari one!

 If you plug it, you'll burn one of the CIAS when pressing any mouse button!

 BEWARE!!!!
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.

All I remember is that mouse pointer would go all screwy when you plugged an Atari mouse in... I didn't kill my CIAs though...

Atari mouse shouldn`t blow your CIA chips, but doing it with your Miggy Powered up is a sure way to FuX0r your CIA Chip/s; Irrespective of C= or Amiga Mouse!

5v on Pin 7 & Ground is 8 on both Amiga & Atari. Other functions appear the same tbh.

I had an Amiga mouse once which had a switch underneath to make it work with an Amiga or an Atari. Switching it to Atari mode made the pointer go all wobbly, but didn't cause any damage.

That mouse should work with an Amiga by switching two wires, or at least that's how you use an Amiga mouse on an Atari.  Still funny that there's an Atari logo on it and they posted it as a Commodore Amiga mouse.  Not much attention to detail there.

there are a couple of things to say. while i like the look of it it was not a comfy mouse. i used to use one.
and also the guy seems to sell so much retro gear??? :-?

i emailed him to notify him of his error. i assume he's to lazy to put up a proper pic. i have had no reply yet. but otherwise.  :crazy:
