   Yes, that's a problem.  :/   
      
   A few years ago I acquired a //e with a mouse card, but no mouse.  So   
   last year I did surgery on a PC ball-mouse and made it work with the //e   
   mouse card.  I played a bit with DazzleDraw and the mouse, but I

   playing with it.  Sort of like Lego.  ;)
