Which way round is a wired computer mouse?
Is the front of a computer mouse the arse of it due to the cable "tail" coming out of it, or is the front of a computer mouse the head of the mouse, as it is more of a correct shape?
Simple the cable is not a tail.

9 1 ReplyI absolutely am, but they must have been named after regular mice, so idk what way it was originally envisaged.
8 5 ReplyThe first computer mouse was apparently more of a block.
I imagine it got its name from the 'tail' part, and the fact that it now looks mouse-like is mostly a co-incidence of it now being more ergonomically shaped.14 0 ReplyCould be both, to be honest. I've seen old mouses where the ears were on the buttons, and others where the tail is the cable

Many objects just don't have a front and a back, other than front being the side closer to you.
