Drag and Drop
(More merit for Monty)
Douglas Engelbart, who did lots of dull stuff I don’t really
understand and also invented the computer mouse, has died at the age of 88. The
prototype, a wooden, two wheeled piece of crap that looks like it would earn a
C at a high school science fair, was patented by his employer, the Stanford
Research Institute and licensed to Apple Computer for $40,000, with Engelbart
not receiving a dime in royalties. So not that bright a guy after all.
