Eric, I think you misunderstood ... the mouse for all Mac Plusi is the standard 9-pin serial "square" connector. The serial ports are round 8-pin din, but the round ADB plug didn't come out until the SE & Mac II (technically the Apple IIgs). You are correct in that the corners of the Plus' mouse pl

for the Plus? All the eBay auctions for old Mac mice seem to be the one with the round plugs, rather than the Plus' square mouse plug. There are some 'square mouse with square plug' rodents on eBay - often listed as for the 128Kb and 512Kb Macs. As far as I know, all Mac Pluses came with the
