Macintosh Mouse

Background

The Macintosh has the distinction of launching the mouse as the indispensable computing device we know it as today. However, its mouse was little changed from the original Lisa version and is completely interchangeable. The case was a slightly darker brown than Lisa's beige coloring and it had less formal lines, with a thick chamfer around its edges to match the Macintosh case. Mechanically the Lisa's steel ball was replaced by a rubber one, but otherwise connected with the same DE-9 connectors, though updated with a square-shape and standard thumb screws.
