Cool! Love the crosshair cursor and inconvenient roller system to
control it. No mouse back then!
The mouse was invented, but AFAIK Tektronix didn't start offering
products with mice until the mid-to-late 80s? They did offer a
joystick accessory for the 4051, which looks like the weirdest
joystick I've ever seen.
I think we have one of those joystick things here at the office. A
huge base with a big ball part on top, and a tiny little stick coming
out of that? And some sort of funky card connector on the end of the
cable?
