Mouse Description:
Computer mice come in many shapes and sizes but are all designed to fit either the left or right hand. Anywhere from one to six or more buttons and often a scroll wheel are integrated onto the mouse to provide a wide variety of functions.
Mice may be wired or wireless but they always communicate with the computer via PS/2 or USB ports, usually located on the motherboard. Even though the mouse sits outside the main computer housing, it is an essential part of the complete system.
