I bought 5 Logitec 3-button mice (S35) a week ago in Japan for PS/2
port.  Isn't it impossible in other area?

I've had good luck with the squarish Logitech mice.  I tend to buy
them at the MIT flea market whenever I get the chance.  You can
probably find them online, too, although I didn't have much luck
when I looked recently.

Watch out for failing mice, though.  I spent a good month this summer
thinking Acme, Rio, or the mouse driver was behaving a wee bit odd
only to find out that my frustrations were due to a bad mouse.  Russ
says he has had a similar experience.  A great many minor annoyances
disappeared when the mouse actually worked.
