in reply to @NireBryce's post:

our first computer didn't have a mouse

and we were jealous because you needed a mouse to play the COOL games like King's Quest and the Adventures of Willy Beamish

(you may actually be able to do early Sierra games without one, we're not totally sure, but a mouse does help)

then for a long time we had mice which, by today's standards, barely worked. like lots and lots of being intimately aware of the mechanical details of them, because they were constantly failing. we also took the time to find out the electrical details, although we had no actual need to.

anyway it's really nice that modern mice hardly ever need repair or cleaning

yeah, though I'm thinking more along the lines of how fast someone learns how to map the two planes being like a year or two tops for general proficiency.

though maybe not anymore, perhaps gamers will be the only post-zoomers who use a mouse.
