Yes. Dr. Douglas C. Engelbart is still alive today. The clever computer visionary was born on 30 January 1935. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on the inventor of the computer mouse. And because they update fastidiously, you can use the link on just about any day and find out if Doug is still on this side of the veil with us. Why not drop by today and make his acquaintance?

How much did the inventor of the computer mouse initially make from his invention?

The mouse was invented maybe 30 years ago at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Centre. (PARC) But there is no information on who exactly invented it, or if that person made any money. Not true, Douglas C. Engelbart invented the mouse. He was at Xerox PARC at the time. According to Peter Forbes, "Engelbart, who had patented the mouse in 1967 in Stanford's name, never made any money from it; Stanford Research Institute licensed the idea to Apple for a nominal sum." Steve Jobs saw the mouse in action as part of their research on user interfaces and "borrowed" the mouse and the GUI interface concept for the Apple PC. Since Xerox was not successful in the PC business, I guess Jobs deserves a lot of the credit for making the mouse and the GUI interface the de facto user interface for the whole personal computer industry.
