"To view this, please install silverlight" Oof...


That is part of the museum experience :-)

But no MS Trackball Explorer, nor Sidewinder Pro Force, input devices created by microsoft that had no or tiny market segment, and seemed to have been created solely because someone there wanted such a thing to exist.


seeing the pivot viewer gives me warm fuzzies. It is a fantastic way of looking at a collection, unfortunately... silverlight. There is an HTML fork of it though https://github.com/openlink/html5pivotviewer
