What's unique about the sun mousemats? Two-colour ones were made by
several people. I need one for my IBM 5277 mouse :-( I was going to
use one off a Silicon Graphics Iris, which appears to be the same two
colours I remember from IBM, but it has vanished somewhere in my house.
I have seen others with different colours (red and blue instead of
yellow and blue) on a coarser resolution. These may have been near Sun
machines, I can't remember.

I ask merely from curiosity...

Philip.
