Apple IIe>Macintosh SE>Performa>iMac (dumb hockey puck mouse)>G3>G4>…(a bunch of PowerBooks & Macbooks)

The SE mouse felt good to hold and click, but don’t forget cleaning out hand goo from the mouse ball. Optical mice were a game changer, so much better, that I used an MS Intellimouse as soon as it was USB. Had the AA powered Magic Mouse with my last iMac Once the trackpad in the MacBooks got glass and big, I mostly stopped using mice.

Touchpads are now a necessity for my work (as a graphics/3D cad/lite full-stack dev).
