Now we all know that finding a suitable Atari Bus mouse for use with
QIMI can be a pain, but how about using one of these:

I have some QIMI interfaces left, if anyone wants to give it a go!
I presume that the way it works is let you use a USB mouse plugged
into Atari-style socket? (i.e. not the other way around, which would
probably be pointless).

Hee hee - yes, I presume so !!
.... but of course. Just read lower down on the page:
----------
Working with any PC USB mice.* It does not need any drivers.
Automatic calibration.
Smooth 1000dpi control.
Easy to mounting, just plug into Atari ST mouse port.
------------
I like the concept of "Easy to mounting" (8-)#
I wonder if they can do it in black?

Someone else has commented that this would need a mouse which is PS/2
compatible (ie. can work with a USB->PS/2 adaptor, not just a generic
USB only mouse).
No idea how you know which it is though !
