usb with the ps/2 adapter.
the optics are right off of the mouse.
the extender is what oscar uses to plug the wires on his spinners in with.
if you look on the mouse board where the optics used to be you will see the little white plug thing.... I'm sure radio shack or a store alike would have something like this.

: Nice hack. I'm considering doing something similar for mine (I have a opti-pac, but I think I blew it... sigh...)
: I like the idea of using USB connections for plug-n-play.
: have a quick question.
: you used the optics from teh mouse itself right? The extension you are talking about, is that something you bought?
