Lisa Mouse Question (The Missing Link?)

<< < (2/3) > >>

ried:
Thank you. If it was indeed modified, hats off to whoever performed the modification because I can't find any signs of it.

stepleton:
I was looking for signs too and couldn't see any. I was thinking: maybe it's not hard to swap the cables since it seems like they have a header connector at the end. I forgot about the microswitch for the mouse button, but then I disassembled my M0100 and my M0050 and found that they appear to use the same microswitch.

So I think all you would have to do to replace an old cable assembly with a new one is unplug the header connector and swap the assemblies. The important detail is that the assembly includes the microswitch.

I haven't gone so far as to try it, though.

compu_85:
I've swapped the cable from a Mac 128k mouse to a Lisa mouse. The strain relief and connector are same.

Makes sense!

I think we have a winner. Here's the 128K mouse from iFixit, with the same strain relief.

So the Lisa mouse in question has a Macintosh 128K cable. Easy enough.

paule:
My Lisa mouse also has the four part strain relief and a squeeze connector.
