I see that plan9 has been ported to the NeXT.  The standard NeXT mouse
is a disgusting 2 button affair, and I have had to give up using sam
on the NeXT due to the lack of a third button.  (The X server will let
me use a mouse chord as a virtual middle-button, but then real chords
become a trifle difficult.)

What's the recommended mouse for plan9 on the NeXT?

PS. I'm waiting for Jobs' next career move. It implies a useful number
of buttons on the mouse. Apple (1) -> NeXT (2) -> ???
