Ever since Apple tied the tail of a mouse to its original Macintosh
in 1983, engineers and manufacturers have worked overtime to come up

machines. Over the years, they've developed trackballs, touch screens, touch pads, joystick pointers, tracking pens and dozens of other gadgets. Some have found a market, but most desktop computers still come with mice -- a testament to the durability of the original point-and-click concept.
