I'm using a Logitech USB mouse on my G4 (don't know the model), and it 
works fine. If I recall, the software had a warning in it stating that if 
your computer had ADB (or didn't have USB built in), you had to have an 
ADB mouse hooked up at startup, as well as the USB one. My cousin has 2 
mice on his system (though he removed the ball from the ADB one, to 
prevent them from working against each other?) He was the one that 
pointed this oddity out to me. He said since the USB extentions load 
after the Mouseware extention (CP?), there had to be an ADB mouse hooked 
up so the software would see a mouse of some sort. I'm not 100% sure of 
any of this, as none of this applies to any of my machines. I've only got 
one machine with USB, and it had it right on the mobo. 

I doubt this would work, but Kennsington's MouseWare seems to support 
alot of mice, though I'm guessing it works only with ADB, unless they've 
got newer versions than what I'm running on my SE/30.

Hope some of this jibberish help you out,
