Computer Dreamer Who Invented the Mouse

Douglas C. Engelbart was 25, just engaged to (be MARRied) and

thinking about his future when he had a dream in 1950 that

(would change/has CHANGEd) the world.

He had a good job working at a government aerospace

laboratory in California, but he wanted to do something

(more) with his life, something of value that might last,

even outlive him. Then it came to him. In a single stroke

he (HAd) what might be safely called a complete

vision of the information age.

The angel in his dream spoke to him of technology’s

potential (EXPANDing) human intelligence, and from it he

made out a career that indeed had lasting impact. It led to a

host of inventions that became the basis for the Internet

and the modern personal computer.

In (LATEr) years, one of those inventions was given a

warmhearted name, reminding of a small, furry creature

given to scurrying across flat surfaces: the computer

mouse.

Computing was in its infancy when Dr. Engelbart entered

the field. Computers were ungainly room-size calculating

machines that could (be USEd) by only one person at a

time. Someone would feed them information in stacks of

punched cards and then wait hours for a printout of

answers. Interactive computing was a thing of the future,

or in science fiction. But it was growing in (DR. ENGELBART's)

restless mind.

In his dream, he saw himself (SITting) in front of a large

computer screen full of different symbols. The screen, he

thought, would serve as a display for a workstation that

would organize all the information and communications

for a given project.
