The mice that came with the DMD-5620s, the Dépraz Mouse, "Made in
Switzerland" (one of mine says "Type D 85 / P") looks very similar.  I
have one in an original AT&T package too.

It's one of my favourite Unix-related possessions, along with the
DMD-5620 itself (or do I have 2?).  Not a real Jerq, but still very
nice!

I wish I had the 3B2/500 that I used the DMD with -- but it didn't have
an Ethernet card, and without TCP/IP it did not seem useful enough to
keep at the time I moved into working with full Internet things.

I do also still have a VT102 that reminds me of the PDP-11s I also once
had.
