Title: Inventor of the computer mouse dies at 88 Post by: HCK on July 04, 2013, 03:01:42 pm Inventor of the computer mouse dies at 88
Though the mouse didn't become the standard way to control a desktop computer until Apple released the Macintosh in 1984, it was first invented 20 years earlier by a visionary World War II veteran named Douglas C. Engelbart, who passed away this week at the age of 88. http://appleinsider.com.feedsportal.com/c/33975/f/617028/s/2e34e2e3/l/0Lappleinsider0N0Carticles0C130C0A70C0A40Cinventor0Eof0Ethe0Ecomputer0Emouse0Edies0Eat0E88/story01.htm |
