bbking67 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Not sure if anyone saw this, but apparently Atari's trackball was copied when they designed the first Apple mouse... http://9to5mac.com/2014/08/18/how-the-atari-arcade-system-inspired-the-original-apple-mouse/ I had read that Woz designed the Apple mouse, but here another engineer is taking credit for the design. Maybe Woz just improved the design and reduced the number of chips required (the story was that Woz was responsible for bringing the power requirements down). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
