American tech giant Microsoft has said that it will no longer manufacture mouse for computers and laptops, keyboards and webcams under the Microsoft brand. Instead, the company has said, according to media reports, that it will develop Surface-branded PC accessories, which include these products along with pens and more. 

According to The Verge, the move ends the legacy of Microsoft-branded PC hardware launched in 1983 with Word and Notepad bundled together.

"Going forward, we are focusing on our Windows PC accessories portfolio under the Surface brand," says Dan Laycock, senior communications manager at Microsoft, was quoted as saying.
