Depends on where you are. I use the mirror at
http://ftp.sunet.se/~aminet/ ,
others might prefer to use an FTP client or ADT, the Aminet download tool.
>2) What is ps2m.lha? the microcontroller program? schematics? what?
Haven't bothered too look since I'm not into such advanced electronics as
PICs or whatever might be involved. Besides, I'm content with my mouse, and if
I need another one, I'll just slaughter a PC bus mouse. =)

Using LhA, of course. It's available for every OS in existence.
Some people might know it as the older LhArc or LZH.
BTW, there's a URL in the readme:
