  Mouse A  computer mouse  (plural  mice , also  mouses ) [nb 1]  is a hand-held  pointing device  that detects  two-dimensional  motion relative to a surface. This motion is typically translated into the motion of the  pointer  (called a cursor) on a  display , which allows a smooth control of the  graphical user interface  of a  computer . The first public demonstration of a mouse controlling a computer system was done by  Doug Engelbart  in 1968 as part of the  Mother of All Demos . [1]  Mice originally used two separate wheels to directly track movement across a surface: one in the x-dimension and one in the Y. Later, the standard design shifted to use a ball rolling on a surface to detect motion, in turn connected to internal rollers. Most modern mice use  optical movement detection  with no moving parts. Though originally all mice were connected to a computer by a cable, m...

Laptops have rechargeable batteries that can be used for a set period away from a power source. The display screen hinges up from the body of computer to open. Laptops are generally lower in  energy consumption  than desktop computers. Desktops are designed to be stationary and often reside on a desk. Desktops must be plugged in to a power source to be used. Unlike laptops, the display screen is usually separate from the computer, although this is not always the case.
