Mice

Mice

Mice are pretty cheap so I don't expect much demand for any of these... but, who knows? Late on some dark and stormy night, you might suddenly need an emergency replacement mouse.

Some of the mice are pretty old and use obsolete interfaces like a 25-pin serial or bus mouse connector. This page might be the only place you'll ever see them.

The usual caveats apply: They're free if you come an' get 'em. $10 plus postage if I have to send them to you. At that price, you'd be better off buying a new one.

Keyboards

There are some basic keyboards and some multimedia keyboards. The multimedia keyboards have additional keys for certain functions like Instant Messaging, Web, TV, Radio, CD controls.
The fundamental keys (alphabetic, numeric, punctuation, F-keys, control, alt, shift, ins, del, etc.) on all keyboards worked with my non-multimedia computer.
However, none of the multimedia keys worked on my computer. Had I a multimedia computer, I expect the keys would have worked.

The full name of this keyboard is "Microsoft Wireless Multimedia Keyboard 1.0A"
I don't have the installation disk for this. The driver depends on your operating system but all versions are available online. I downloaded the driver for 32-bit Windows XP and it worked just fine.
There is no mouse. What looks like a mouse in the photo is the receiver. Batteries not included.

Microsoft
  • Connector: Wireless, USB.
The keyboard is "Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 1000". The mouse is "Microsoft Wireless Mouse 2000". They both connect wirelessly to the "Microsoft Wireless Desktop Receiver 3.1".
I don't have a driver disk for this set. I plugged it in and it worked right away on my XP machine.
Batteries not included.
