Just a place to hang my mouse...

Posted by: Juror22 on 2022-09-28 22:12:47 I've always liked unusual and/or different mouse pads and over the years I've gotten a few different ones, but this one I had to share. I got this in an eBay auction the other day - it is in almost perfect condition with a slight indent in one area where it seems something heavy (but soft) was stored on top of it for a period of time. Since I used the MetroWerks products back in the day, I will enjoy having a reminder so close at hand.

Posted by: Juror22 on 2022-10-17 22:10:52 Too true, and I totally agree with both of your comments. I remember showing off my new Metrowerks Pascal book to my brother at a Denny's after my shift at the hospital in the early 1990's, which was a few years before the real CodeWarrior stuff, including the IDE's and such came out (I think). At the time, I still was still programming (for fun and my own learning) either on the computers at work or on my brother's IIcx in Basic and wanted to program in a more sophisticated language. Fun times!
