In the world of sleek product design, Apple’s Magic Mouse has long been praised for its minimalist beauty. But when it comes to day-to-day use, even the head of Apple himself seems to favor function over form. In a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse, Tim Cook revealed that his desk setup includes a mouse that isn’t even made by Apple—and honestly, it’s hard to blame him.

    I own a Magic Mouse. It sits in a drawer.

    For most stuff, I use a trackpad. Except on my Thinkpad, which I use with a Mighty Mouse, because non-Apple trackpads are so annoying.

    In my opinion, the Mighty Mouse was one of the best mice Apple ever made. Four click zones and a trackball, and an optical tracking system. If I’m using a mouse, a cable is not an issue. And despite me having backup Mighty Mice in case mine fails, I’ve been using my current one with no issues since 2008.
