My very first optical #mouse, a #Microsoft #IntelliMouse Optical, has finally died. It was over 25 years old.
Shockingly, it wasn't the buttons; they were, somehow, still working fine until now. There was some kind of electronic failure. The mouse no longer lights up and the pointer no longer moves.
I don't think I've seen a mouse before or since that lasted anywhere near as long as this one did. Very impressive.
