Reseña del libro "Why Is It Called a Mouse? (en Inglés)"

Ever wonder why it's called a mouse? A computer repair guy finally went looking for answers, and what he found is stranger, funnier, and more surprising than you'd ever guess. Why do we "boot" a computer? Why is junk email named after canned meat? Why does the Save button still look like a floppy disk nobody has used in decades? Every everyday piece of tech has a hidden story, and this book tells the best of them. Inside, you'll discover: The moth that became the most famous bug in history Why Wi-Fi doesn't actually stand for anything The coffee pot that invented the webcam The moon-landing software that was sewn by hand The floppy disks that guarded America's nukes until 2019 Why Ctrl+Alt+Delete was never meant for you to use The movie star who almost invented Wi-Fi (and the truth behind the legend) Along the way, you'll get true Tech Support Confessions from years on the help desk, including the monitor that recorded a punch, the laptop that "just quit" (it was full of milk), and the problem that always fixes itself the moment tech support walks in. Every entry is short, fun, and fact-checked, with the real history behind the myths everybody repeats. Read it cover to cover or open it anywhere. Perfect for IT pros, tech lovers, gamers, history buffs, and anyone who's ever been told to turn it off and on again. A great gift for coworkers, dads, Secret Santa swaps, and the tech support person who's saved your day more than once.
