In case anyone else is interested - I opened up my Mac Pro and indeed the B/T
and Airport antenna wires appeared to be wrongly connected as in the article.
I re-connected them in the apparently correct manner, and restarted the
machine. Disappointingly it didn't seem to make much difference - my wireless
keyboard still works normally but the Mighty Mouse still jitters.

Sometime when I have the energy I'll open it again and re-check the
connections just in case I made a mistake. At least I took the opportunity to
hoover out large amounts of dust and clean the fans. It's noticeably quieter
now and I think runs a bit cooler
