Super ironic that apple stole the idea of the Mouse from parc and managed to completely fuck it up.

I blame jobs for this.

He basically tried to force an opposing idea for its sake on something that would be an FU to MS.

But the physical design of these mice with the recharge port on the bottom was an utter retard.
