Anyone heard of an AMX 3-button mouse for the C64? Is it a "true" mouse
or a "joystick-emulator" mouse (1351 or 1350)?

Yes, I have the AMX mouse, it has 3 buttons and was usually sold with
the "Stop Press" desktop publishing software.

It is a proper proportional mouse, but it is not directly compatible
with the 1351. There is a BASIC extension on the disk that allows you
to write your own software that can run windows, icons and a pointer
with the mouse in control.

I'm not aware of much software that supports the AMX - I've never seen
a GEOS driver, and the only game I've played with it is LEMMINGS

The 1351 is a true mouse - the 1350 isn't.
