27 April 11

Happy Birthday, Computer Mouse! Thirty years ago today, Xerox PARC introduced the mobile input device with a tail. Thirty years from now, computer mice will be ancient relics. My tie has computers and mice from the IBM "AT" era, mid-1980s.

If we can accept Amazon.com as authoritative, then the plural of computer mouse is "MICE."
