I haven't had time for much lately and still don't. But I am pleased to announce a limited run of the original PeST PS2 to Atari mouse adapter as co-authored between exxos and the late Alison Challis.

I stopped producing them because the market became flooded with mouse adapters which rendered making them pointless after while. However, these have been basically sat on my shelf unfinished for the past decade. So I finally decided to finish them off and they are now available in the store.

Theres 13 left in stock currently.

It seems a shame that more people don't mention these PS2 Atari adapters on groups. They were the de facto-standard before all the clones started appearing. They seem to have been forgotten over time which is a shame.

They look pretty neat (and I've just found a few of the old Microsoft 'kidney' mice when looking for something else in the garage)...if I hadn't bought a silly number of mice and joysticks via this forum a few years back, I'd be snapping them up.

One or two might still make it onto my birthday wish-list though ;)

Was this the one that was developed by Techie Alison Challis who died in 2011 in a Motorcycle accident? Wowsers that's 13 years ago :(
