I always thought it was /dev/input/mice, but that shows you what I know.
The theory is that your can have multiple (..mouses/mice/meece) er,
POINTERS on the box as mouse0, mouse1, etc and they all get summed in
the other node (wherever it is). There is little sense to this, but if
they can do it in windows (and users can with ease) then linux should do
it better - that's the theory.
