I’m looking through my Macintosh user guide (the booklet that accompanied my 1984 Macintosh) for the first time in a while, and I’m a little obsessed with this graphic explaining scrolling.
@uliwitness @superbetsy I remember teaching a student about that technique around 2010, and the look of relief on his face.
He'd developed an interesting flicking technique that took advantage of mouse acceleration, but was probably hell on the wrist.
