Can anybody name a Microsoft interface with good UX? (Yes, the grandparent liked the Azure homepage, but that was also disputed by several others)

Does Microsoft Mouse count?

Not familiar with the product. The MS name alone would make me biased. Is it really good or even better in some way? Or did you just slightly ironically mean they did not manage to make it worse than competing products?

It was really good. I think Microsoft had numerous great mice, atypically for Microsoft: https://vswitchzero.com/2018/03/09/unboxing-a-22-year-old-mi...

A great thing about mice is that they are fungible and don't change without the user's consent, unlike software, so you can keep buying and using the same mouse forever.

The average mouse of the time was blocky and uncomfortable.
