Dragonfly: Invention vs. Production

I think you may have your terms mixed up. Just becuase the LaserWriter was (although I don't think it was) the first laser printer, doesn't mean Apple invented it. It measns they produced it.

Same goes for the GUI and mouse. By your own admission, they didn't invent either of those.

As for "photo-realistic VR", we just have different meanings for that I guess. No big deal.

Hypercard was not the first implementation of a hypertext system, if I recall correctly. I can look into it further if you'd like.

And, of course, this doesn't change the fact that you haven't come up with a single major technological invention from your beloved Microsoft.

Well, I don't think I ever claimed any technical invention from MS.
