On December 9th, 1968, Stanford Research Institute scientist Douglas Engelbart demonstrated his unique invention–the computer mouse–for the first time in public. It took another decade and a half for it to catch on, but once it did, computing was never the same. And today, it’s hard to imagine using a desktop or laptop computer without a mouse (or one of its latter-day substitutes such as the touchpad). In celebration of the anniversary, here’s a gallery of some of the mightiest mice of the last four decades.

About the “Apple’s first iMac”… Maybe you never asked people with small hands like me, until that one came by, béziers were a no no for me… that little round beauty rolled me to a world of precise tracing and I love it! I still have two… a blue and a red :)
