System Solutions Mouse

Shiuming Lai invites you to a mouse party...

Replacement Atari mice are not easy to come by these days - and those which do appear are often not much of an improvement over the standard Atari model.
System Solutions have attempted to redress the balance with this specially-commissioned design, made to its own specification - it says here!
The ergonomic shape fits the contours of my hand well and it feels comfortable in use and in common with its peers the buttons operate micro switches which are both light yet responsive in operation. A generous lead is attached and with a flick of a switch it can be used on an Amiga.
Anyone concerned with details will notice the System Solutions logo emblazoned on the top and the amusing blurb on the box pointing out it doesn't require external power - show me a mouse that does! We're not exactly spoilt for choice these days so if secondhand is out this has to be your first choice.
