I am about a hundred posts behind, so forgive me if the point has already been made, but under the circumstances, I thought it was real chutzpah for Apple to try to stop Microsoft from developing Windows, as I recall Apple claimed that Windows infringed on Apple's copyrights.

One question I have for you and Lizzie, anyone else if they know, was any of the work at Xeroc Parc funded by the federal government? I mean, like Arpanet, or whatever. Seems like I remember reading that it was. It would be ironic if the American taxpayer actually paid for the research, is why I am wondering . . . .
