Mighty Mouse trademark awarded to Man & Machine, Mister Trouble can stop hanging around now

Trademark registration number 3691042, you just made someone very happy. This week, the US Patent and Trademark Offices awarded Man & Machine with the rights to the name “Mighty Mouse” when it comes to computer mice / “cursor control devices.” So of the two peripherals shown above, it seems the beaut on the right is the one with legal claim to the moniker. Good thing, too, since its claims on “Cool Mouse” and “Really Cool [Mouse]” died just before Christmas last year. We gotta say, it looks as good of a time as any to replace the old point-and-click, eh Apple?
