Now a days pointing device looks like a Mouse as usual it is in Black colour.
But I remember about 3-4 years back it was in white color. So it did not look like a Mouse at that
stage. Did it?

Yeah, I do wonder why the pointing device is called a "mouse" Atleast it being called a mouse is
better than calling it a hand with a pointer finger, or a hour glass, or even the thing that appears
when you're typing.

Everyone is familiar with a computer mouse; along with the keyboard, it is one of the most common
input devices you will use. A mouse is also called a 'pointing device' because it enables you to
control what happens on the screen by moving the mouse on your desk and pointing, clicking and
selecting items on the screen.

Hi, I would say that a mouse is called a 'pointing device' because it enables you to control what
happens on the screen by moving the mouse on your desk and pointing it by clicking and selecting
items on the screen.
