I can tell you from observation that most Lisa 1 and Lisa2/5 systems I have
worked on had the Lisa style mouse and the 2/10 systems had Mac type mice.
It's also known that late in the Lisa product cycle Apple was reluctant to
build more parts inventory for the Lisa product line and the Mac was
selling poorly, so it would have been logical for Apple not make more Lisa
mice and use Mac mice at that point, but this is just a educated guess.

Lisa mice were a popular item for Mac users early on (before 3rd party mice
where available) who liked the "feel" of the Lisa mouse over the Mac mouse,
and a lot of mouse "trading" was going on. Also later when SUN Remarking
was selling the old inventory for Apple they did a lot of mixing and
matching of components to get together complete working systems to sell, so
I would not be uncommon for them to ship an early Lisa with a Mac mouse.
