Microsoft-branded mice and keyboards are going away after 40 years

If I asked you to name Microsoft's best-known and longest-lived product, you'd almost certainly say "Windows." But another one of the company's products has been on the market for even longer: its mice.
" From my cold dead hands!"
Sorry if that headline caused any panic. I actually am still a little cautious of their whole "Surface" brand. I just don't trust them to not cancel the line as soon as I buy one.

Are you saying "Don't look beneath the Surface, because the depths will scare you?" :laugh:

Well, if the name had been Google, they'd've been canceled before any appeared on store shelves.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated. I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

That's a shame. Their keyboards used to be really good. Haven't tried them recently, though...

I was skeptical of Surface until I used one at my last job (pre-COVID). It was the best tablet I've used. As for their mice; good riddance. They used to be great, but now suck. (Never liked their keyboards.)
