This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

A normal computer mouse has its cord/tail coming out of their front which is very unrealistic! This mouse by logitech fixed this issue.

PS/2 ports didn’t become the norm until well into the 90s.

Right. Which for a paralell port, is why I said 80s.

PS/2 ports are from the 80s. D-subminiature connectors, including those used for Serial, are from the 50s. Parallel, or Centronics Interface, ports have been around since 1970.
