I remember when mice were a neat new peripheral for use with graphical interfaces instead of typing in a command line.

I remember the adapters that went from the larger version of this to smaller as well as using the serial port.

I'm using a PS/2 keyboard and trackpad right now.

Adesso ACK-540-pw if anyone is interested.

Anybody else here play Oregon Trail on a teletype terminal? The school had 2 terminals in a small basement room that a few of us nerds could get access to for and hour or two a week, We would try to learn Basic, (with no one to teach us), and play Oregon Trail and get yelled at for going through some much thermal paper.......
