Description
English: The LogiMouse (1983) was Logitech's second generation mouse and was sold to computer manufacturers for $99 each. It was designed by Anoine Cahen and had a resolution of 200 steps per inch. InfoWorld August 8, 1983, Page 21.

The cable configuration was for the FutureNet schematic design workstation. The system used an IBM PC (Model 5150) with a custom graphics board (640 by 360 pixels). The larger Amp connector attached both the mouse and the output of the IBM monochrome text video board to the custom FutureNet graphics board.
