But there were relatively few mouse pointers for the ADB back then, compared to a wide variety of choice of mouse pointers now available for iMac and Mac Pro users. I like the “hefty” feel of the bigger Logitech and Microsoft mouse pointers and I’m seriously thinking of getting a Microsoft Natural Wireless Mouse 6000 to replace my Logitech MX500 mouse pointer.

Still, they existed, back to the Apple IIGS. Mouse options have been around, and nobody's been stuck with one button, for over 20 years.

Even Logitech made (depending on what year) 50-100% of their designs in ADB as well as PS/2, serial, and bus.

In fact, some of those Logitech PC “bus” mice? Yeah, they actually WERE ADB mice. The bus card was an ADB card.

The reality is that you *knew* of few, not that there *were* few.
