A while back already, but since i couldn't find a thread about this i decided to create one to pay my respect to this man who contributed a lot to pc gaming (don't think it was his goal to create a gaming peripheral back then but who cares).



Douglas Carl Engelbart (January 30, 1925 – July 2, 2013) was an American engineer and inventor, and an early computer and Internet pioneer. He is best known for his work on the challenges of human–computer interaction, particularly while at his Augmentation Research Center Lab in SRI International, resulting in the invention of the computer mouse, and the development of hypertext, networked computers, and precursors to graphical user interfaces.
