 		 #117728 - That is not how a mouse works.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The comunication is simple.
The PS2 receiver is(or was) an 8051.
The data is bi-directional, but not a conversation.
the PS2 mouse sends data as it changes.

wedge gets button press message -> ignores it.
wedge gets move message -> retransmitts it to PC
wedge gets message from PC -> retransmitts it to mouse.

Remember it is a secret. We do not know if to are making 1 or 100,000. at a million (or less) it would pay to design a special mouse.

But hey this is free advice, and worth every penny.
