@SukkoPera: That 1) mentioned by MMS might be my influence. Although connecting a 'cheap' serial mouse to the 264 series machines is a nice idea, I have some issues with that. Those peripherals are slow and their communication is quite asynchronous with the screen refresh rate of the machines. Which would be an enormous hindrance when programming anything that uses raster interrupts and a serial mouse. My idea was buffering that communication with a microcontroller and transmitting mouse data only at request and with a sufficiently high external clock like 19.2k or higher.
