gizmodo.com — Do you remember the year 1983, when Return of the Jedi was in theaters, The Police were still together, and Travis was still inside his parents' genitalia? Well Gearlog does, because they got their hands on an original 1983 Microsoft Mouse.

@bedouinIf my memory serves me well, I think the mouse had two modes: joystick mode and "true" proportional mouse mode. I think you were supposed to hold down the left mouse button while powering up the c64 in order to switch modes.Edit: Ah, it was a proportional mouse with the ability to switch as Joystick mode by holding down the RIGHT mouse button <a class="user" href="http://www.zimmers.net/cbmpics/jmice2.html">http://www.zimmers.net/cbmpics/jmice2.html</a>

Just yesterday a fanboy on Digg was boasting about how Microsoft "copied the mouse" from the Mac along with Windows. I could tell him that Microsoft was bundling it's mouse with Word *and* demoing a Windows beta with a mouse the year before the first Mac was released, but no doubt he'd choose not to believe me. Microsoft didn't invent either one, but neither did Apple.For you Linux fans.... A bit earlier, Microsoft was promoting it's Unix OS, Microsoft Zenix, as the way of the future. This was spun off as SCO Zenix, which then bought the rights from AT&T(?) to call it SCO Unix. (This is not the same SCO that is sueing Linux companies. That's a different company which bought the name.)

The Macbook Pro, and the Macbook have a single button on the trackpad that serves as both a right click and a left click.Tapping the button causes a left click, tapping the button while you have two fingers on the trackpad causes a right click.It's actually a hell of a lot more comfortable and intuitive to use than having to awkwardly click a right trackpad button with either your thumb or middle finger
