Was that mid-80 Xerox machine’s mouse already optical like the Xerox DocuTech 6135ps I toyed with in mid-90?
Yes, the Xerox 8010 was using an optical mouse as early as 1981, and not just the mid 80s. Xerox had their own optical mouse design in 1980.
Hm...seems like it was optical, but do not remember. I did not use the machine myself - our technical writer did.
