but did not understand how to market the GUI to the masses. MSFT did.

Reg,

You are quite the Definition. MS used Apple to market the GUI to the masses. In 1985, the IBM AT was an admin tool to do charts for the Dilbert bosses. By 1989, the Mac had moved the tool into the bosses cubicle, but MS was feeding them their crack. Word for the Mac.

I will agree with you that part of their success is because their compitition were filled with soda pop salesman and #0's.
