Have you experimented with tracking speeds yet?
Yep, It works, but I need to hold the thumb button. Probably because I tested it running a minimal system 6 version (380kb) from a floppy.

One of the outputs from each axis is wire-OR'd to an interrupt line, so when there's movement, it interrupts the processor which then polls the state of all 4 lines and translates that into how many pixels the mouse should move and which direction.
Hmm, it sounds that would effect performance in games where a lot of mouse movement is required..

Sitting snugly in its holder.. :beige: De-yellowing is next!
