Computer users may soon throw out their mice and their keyboards.
According to Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, computers will be able to operate by sound and by touch in the near future.
The computer mouse was first used in December 1968. However, it was first called a “turtle”.

Interesting fact about the turtle mouse.
However, regarding what Bill Gates said about us all throwing out our mice in the near future, I couldn’t see it. The mouse is comfortable. There are already touch pads on almost all labtops and they just aren’t comfortable and they actually cause you to work a lot slower than when you work with a mouse. The mouse fits into our hand ergonomically and I think it’s here to stay. (However, I’m no Bill Gates! lol…but I do have an opinion for what it’s worth.)
Thank God it’s not “turtle”,
I gotta say you’re guys doing such a great job, keep it up and way to go.
I agreeeeeeeeeeee with Jessica Ojeda….
Jessica’s idea sounds reasonable,but new technology’s development is always much faster than our imagination.For example,the majority of Chinese residents desire owning their private cars some ten years ago,but what happened less than 10 years later overturned the previous thought.
