'50s Mouse
A computer mouse requiring large motor skills that will pay homage to the 1950's | |
Back in the 1950's automatic machines required large motor skills to operate. Early track ball mouse input devices, although as precise as contemporary models sometimes required large motor skills to operate especially as they became plugged with grime. A 1950s Mouse with an oversized mousepad will
require much larger ranges of motion for relative cursor travel.
(??) 1950's mouse (s)

How about fitting GPS and Bluetooth to a Mini, and
using the carpark as a mousepad? |

It would be a lot like operating a ball mouse that is
clogged with dead wrist belly. |

I hope it has fins and wide whitewalls... [+] |

And Marilyn Monroe lips painted on it. |

Chrome. Lots of chrome. And some Van deGraaff
towers for ears. |
