Why do companies tried to make circular mice happen so hard? I think this is the third one I know of (after the iMac puck one and the later NeXT one).
@mwichary Another one for your list: I used one on a Dec MicroVax II, back in the late '80s. It had quite a large diameter, and fit reasonably well under the hand.

Speaking of, some more nice keyboards.
@mwichary Can't wait for the next Severance season

@mwichary We had a screen-less printer terminal for our PDP-something in high school (Gymnasium) in the early eighties. IIRR it was able to print symbols for the APL programming language
