      ​@@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.

      Good Lord did I hate trackball's. I remember finding optical Belkin mice at Big Lots for a decent price and never went back. Though the thick cords still sucked and would frequently get tangled up to the point where I ditched wires once wireless optical mice came on the market.

    • @abcmole
      @abcmole 6 ปีที่แล้ว +53

      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
      @razvanmiracom 6 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      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.

      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.

    Xerox has a facility known as PARC - Palo Alto Research Center. Research is all they do. I don't know about now but back in the day they never applied for patents. One day Steve Jobs went there to visit a friend. He saw not only his first mouse but also a GUI. He went back to his office and put his tech people into duplicating what he had seen. Apple applied for and received patents on both. Then Steve had the gall to sue Microsoft for infringing on their patent with Windows. Such a nice guy. That first Apple with a GUI was called the Lisa. Why? That was the in-house name as a joke because it was the name of Jobs illegitimate daughter. Such a nice guy. It took so long to get the computer to work that the joke name leaked, so Apple felt it beneficial to use the name it was already known by. The Lisa used software-based graphics. That was much, much slower than hardware-based gr5aphics. Also, ram was very expensive back then. While the common price point at that time was around $2,500 the Lisa was over $10k. Needless to say it was not Apple's best seller. Jobs was good at marketing and hired good designers but the other Steve was the tech brain at Apple.

It's sad to see today now mouse producers focus more on DPI rather than the sensor itself and the FPS IMO

    I never put all that much thought into how a mouse operates. I didn’t realize (for optical mice) it was truly “seeing” the surface it was moving on. I thought it did some junk with reflections and pulses and whatever. In today’s world, it’s a pretty mundane item, but it’s packing some surprisingly sophisticated tech. Especially Bluetooth mice which have to do all the processing, then transmit it over the air to an itty bitty receiver which then decodes that info and feeds it to your computer so it moves the cursor on the screen

It's a hundred-minute presentation demonstrating several technologies we tend to think of as coming much later, including mice, hypertext, teleconferencing, and real-time collaborative document editing. For any tech junkies/historians out there, I highly recommend watching at least the first half.
