Well, this was the title on CNN's website. Here is the link:

I don't know why they saw fit to call it Mighty Mouse, maybe the journalist is a Mac user. 🙂

I thought those hockey puck mice were still used by Canadians as pucks. 😛

maybe they can't justify paying $70 for a BTMM. i know i can't, despite it's good looks and branding.

Nothing wrong with Apple's original optical mouse, I still used one last year before I bought a wireless Logitech MX600 mouse. 🙂
