Early mice for computers looked very different to how they do today. They were not designed with ergonomics
(ease and comfort of use) in mind. The mouse only really became common in the mid 1980s and may become out
of date, replaced by touchscreens. The development of the mouse made using a computer easier, instead of
needing to use a joystick or keys on the keyboard, just moving the mouse around and clicking had the same effect.
Drawing images on a computer has been made a lot easier with the development of a graphics pad (tablet). This
uses a stylus which is just like an artist using a pen, pencil or brush on paper.
