I bought this mouse on eBay for $13. It wasn't quite what I wanted, but that was my own fault for not being specific enough in my search. I booted into Knoppix and it was immediately detected. Same for Kanotix and Ubuntu. I have had no problems with it on Linux over USB. Windows, on the other hand, was much harder to get it to work with. First I installed MouseWare, then plugged it in, but it wouldn't detect the drivers. I had to find them myself, and couldn't find some of them. It works on Win98SE now with mouse, scroll wheel, and autoscroll for middle button, but I still can't get MouseWare to see it.
Final Score: Windows 98 SE - 0 Linux - 3!
