Did you know the first computer mouse looked like a wooden box with pizza cutters attached to it? How did we get from that to the laser-based RGB mice we know and love today?

@abcmole 6 лет назад

I used mine so much I wore the trackball down on one side and it would slide and not roll . Strangely it was cheaper to buy a new mouse than to buy a replacement trackball, which was like double the price. I miss CompUSA.

@razvanmiracom 6 лет назад

Optical/laser mice also need cleaning. Or at least the cheap ones that have no teflon feet do. Gunk sticks to the plastic feet and the mouse won't slide properly if not cleaned.

@Entropy67 4 года назад

@@420sakura1 lol that’s the exact opposite of the truth, find a good razor laptop and use that with mac os if you have to. Mac's only good point is their software and ecosystem, the hardware they use is extremely prone to failure with expensive replacement costs, and most failures can just be avoided with small changes. Apple as a company would rather put a ticking time bomb in your hardware then make it responsibly because they know that you will end up giving them more money when it eventually dies. I'm sure that as an apple fan, you would like to believe that I’m not telling you the truth. If you think so, please go watch some Louis Rossman vids on irresponsible company behavior from apple.

@michaelcollins966 6 лет назад

Feynstein 100 Xerox set up the Palo Alto Research Centre (PARC) in California to research what a digital office could look like (they were worried about photocopier sales). They got some great minds together and they actually come up with some amazing things - basically designed the computer of the early 90’s, but in the late 70’s. They showed their creations to headquarters, but the bosses didn’t understand it. Jobs heard about it, arranged to see it and then licensed the tech (and took some staff) and made the Macintosh. While looking for software developers, he showed a prototype to Gates, and the rest is history.

Hey Linus, Xerox was one of the first to use optical mice as well. Their DocuTech 135 in the 1990's had an optical mouse with three emitter/sensor pairs arranged in a triangle, inside a half-sphere well under the mouse. These tracked a pattern of dots on the bespoke red and black mouse pad made for the DocuTech. It also wouldn't work on normal surfaces (I tried). Anyhow, just thought I'd mention that bit of nostalgia.

We used to dismantle mouses and stick foil inside the top because they would stop working in sunlight as it penetrated the case and interfered with the infrared sensors

Linus the part where you say the first trackball used wires, that’s actually a rotary encoder it uses optical sensors, not the same as an optical mouse though

I actually had one of those early optical mice, alongside my first 8086 (danm I'm old), that only worked on a special silver mouse pad, back in the late 80s...

do a video on how the "nub style pointing sticks" of thinkpads work. I've always been intrigued.

I too have always been curious about how the Trackpoint works. I've got an old IBM M13 keyboard that has it between the G, H, and B key and love it. I've also got a black one, which I believe is the only model that was released in that color.

I actually licked the pencil eraser more than the early touchpads.

Either they filmed all of these techquickies in a day or Linus really loves Jibo

I actually had (and probably still have it packed somewhere) an optical mouse around 1989 with my first PC. It had a red light, but only worked on a shiny metal "mouse pad" that came with it. It wasn't more expensive than any normal mouse.

Hey anyone who has used synergy can you tell me if you can use It over a network Ethernet switch? I'm asking for the future. I currently use a mac for everything but I want to build a windows gaming PC later this year, and I want to use my razer black widow and death adder elite on both PC's I will use the mac for media operations such as spotify, and communication like discord so I don't have them taking resources on my main rig.
