    But think of the innovation: in those days there was no way they could get you to install their buggy, insecure software that requires you to log into an online account so they can track you and push ads to your desktop. And mice didn’t even have batteries that would fail after a year or two, forcing you to get a new mouse. Heck, you didn’t even have the experience of the mouse seizing up in the middle of your workday because the battery ran out, or becoming intermittently unusable because of interference from USB 3. Those were dark days indeed.
