Re: 3489 mouse issue

[Al Barsa <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A mouse was supported on the 3487, 3488 and 3489, and it was more or less
useless.  I primarily used my 3489 as a vehicle to order free mice when one
of the PC's mouse broke;  IBM would deliver it free!

What version of OS/400 and how does the 3489
"appear" to the 400 ???

The mouse is not really known to the system
and is a terminal function...

I can't find my 3488 manual right this moment but
I can't see a mouse causing a "terminal crash"....

What is the error message number ???
