Microsoft are very good at imitating & copying. As an example look at the "About Internet Explorer" in the help menu.

ten years? are u sure sushi?
I thought the original ms explorer optical was one of the first... and that came out back in like, 98-99....
get a mx500 by logitech, its the best mouse around.
The first one I had did not use IR technology used today. It needed a special mouse pad to reflect the light back. I may be off by a couple of years but I'm pretty sure it was before 95. Remember, Microsoft is not an innovator; they are just a marketing giant.
From PC World:
Optical mouse technology isn't a new concept; Mouse System patented and introduced the first optical mouse with no moving parts in 1982. The company also developed the scrolling mouse wheel in 1994, which Microsoft licensed in 1998 for its first IntelliMouse. Mouse Systems still sells optical mice, but they differ from Microsoft's new design because they require a special mouse pad with a high-resolution grid pattern.
