Community Memory: Discussion List on the History of Cyberspace ______________________________________________________________________
Greetings. The ABC news site has an article on the history of the mouse. While they do have a photo of Doug Englebart, the picture of the "first mouse" they show (supposedly at Logitech HQ) doesn't look anything like the old NLS mouse (with two 90 degree edge wheels and separate piano key strip) that I have in my collection buried somewhere. I thought that mine was a pretty damn old one. Anyone care to shed more light on this?
The article is at:
