: Which mouse did you try? The GyroMouse Pro or the Presenter?

The Pro. It's excellent.

: There's no good picture for the 'Pro'.

It's the cradle and the mouse.

: I'm trying to picture how you'd modify it for a gun - would you just
: be basically aiming the mouse at the screen?

It doesn't "see" the screen. The gyro does all the pointing. The casing can be carefully opened, and the L/R buttons can be wired to a trigger mech, inside of a gun shell.

: And do those things work in DOS?

Yes, they don't use special drivers. The gyro communicates directly with the base, which is connected to the port on the PC.
