Eric,

Re: You should have pointed out that the use of GUI and API, ....heck, personal computers in general were inventions of none other than APPLE.

It looks like you haven't done your homework very well. You express a very common misconception. The fact is that Jobs "borrowed" all that stuff from Xerox's PARC center. He legitimized the heist by hiring their researchers and engineers. And as you know, he then sued Microsoft for borrowing it from Apple. Now you know the rest of the story.
