The picture above is the first mouse showed by Douglas Engelbart the Stanford research Institute Scientist on December 9, 1968 first time in the public. Though this took another one and half more decade to come in use but since then it never stops. Now as it is celebrating its 40 anniversary, no body can imagine a pc without a mouce (It was given this name because of tail like wire attached to it but now days it seems to have rig of this so we are now found a lot of mouse’s without it’s tail - Cool ) . It’s competitor like the touch pad and pen device even can not come close of it.

Now as with a lot companies making this very much needed hardware but as most of users prefer Logitech and Microsoft Mouses. And one cool thing about PC mouses is that this can be used as well with macs but a mac mouse still have to be compatible with a PC. Below are the some of the photographs from its early days.
