ADB Mighty Mouse

This is great. The industrious folks at bounav.free.fr have come up with a pretty cool mod. Specifically, they've put the guts of an Apple Mighty Mouse into the case of an old Apple ADB mouse, resulting in the ADB Mighty Mouse. The left click and right click functionality are both intact, as is the scroll ball (though it's now located on the mouse's side). The "squeeze click" was sacrificed, but who cares? That is one cool mod.

I'm looking for a bluetooth mouse with scroll wheel and a right click button.

Its a shame the mighty mouse is not bluetooth.

Ah, the young whippersnappers! Blissfully unaware of life before the iMacs...

ADB stands for Apple Desktop Bus [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Desktop_Bus]. My absolute favorite Apple keyboard, the Extended II, was a ADB keyboard -- would that they still made them! ADB used a mini-DIN 4 cable, which means you could use your keyboard cable as a spare S-Video connecter.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what does ADB stand for? My best guess is something like, Apple Device Bus or something (ooh see i got it right ther ill be so pleased! :D )
