[rescue] mouse options for ultra2?

[Paul]

(copied from earlier message)
My local 'closeout superstore" had about 5 ps2 to usb  mouse/kybrd adapters
that claim to work wirh any ps/2 setup for $19.99. If you'd like, I could
see if they still have them/pick them up for you. (or anyone else that's
interested)

These aren't just a wiring adapter, it appears they actually convert PS/2 to
USB protocol as well as wiring.

FWIW
