I'd be interested in seeing such data, too. Particularly as I have attached
to various Macs around the house and the office Logitech Wheel Mice, Logitech
TrackMan track balls, and at least three different generations of Microsoft
mice. Plus a few no-name Taiwanese and Korean mice. Every mouse I've tried to
attach to a Mac has worked, so long as the mouse had a USB connector, going
back to the first Macs I've had which had USB. And, indeed, beyond, as USB
mice work even with my old beige G3, which didn't ship with USB ports but
which _does_ have a Sonnet USB/FireWire card installed. It's kinda hard to
find ADB mice nowadays, so the beige has been using a USB mouse for literal
_years_. Both buttons and the scroll wheel worked out of the box with both OS
X and OS 9.

But hey, as I've said before, you can't trust dizzie to tell the truth about
_anything_.
