It’s human interface, dummy!

November 29, 2005

Here’s an interesting look at computing history from Guidebookgallery: a re-publication from a 1989 article of IEEE Spectrum: Of Mice and Menus: Designing the User-Friendly Interface.

Over three decades of work by diverse engineers and researchers intent on
learning how best to interact with a computer come together in the windows and
icons used today

Ah, the merits of a good user interface.

Yes, to date, standard Apple mice still have only one button (save for the Mighty Mouse).
