Joystick creator dies (not Joystiq creator)

Tipster, Santiago do Rego, brings us this news:

"Jef Raskin died last saturday after a terrible pancreas cancer. He wasn't so popular as Bill Gates or Steve Jobs but (working with Jobs) he was the genius behind the creation of the first Macintosh (named after Raskin's favourite type of apple, the McIntosh). He was the first to suggest the idea of a mouse and he created the first Joystick that ever existed (that's why I'm sendind you this info). His book, "The Human Interfase" predicts everything that happened in the last decades and what will happen in the following years."
