Exactly...
Jeez this guy has so much love for Apple, he rewrites History.
A lot of the great ideas for the MAC, like the GUI, mouse, trashcan, even the 1 color desktop [grey], was lifted from the Xerox 860 STAR Deskstation.
I know, I used to SELL them, and I had a mac in 1984, and remarked on the incredible similarities.
Hell, Apple even copied the pricing scheme form the Xerox Star , it charged TOO MUCH for it's machines, and lost the market to WinTel.
I will never forgive Apple, and Jobs, for abandonning the Apple II owners/market. the bastard never gave us a chance to upgrade to the MAC, and abandonned us.
F*** Him.
I will never buy a MAC again. Viva Wintel
My new P2-400, with WIN98 Kicks serious butt !!
What a chip... Wow! 3-4 seconds load times, including splash screens
Take care Paul Jean
