- They can build mice? Today I was looking at an AT running OS/2. It had a
- Microsoft mouse, a big fat thing lying on the table. I put my hand on it,
- it didn't feel nice. I pressed the button ... nothing happened. I pressed
- harder ... SCRUNCH said the mouse and I thought it was trying to eat my
- fingers.
