    Thanks for all the proof, then, that Apple stole from Xerox. I’m certain we believe you now.

    We? What persons are behind the Tallest Skil account?
    But it is clear you (or what group of people is behind your account) didn't read my comment correctly, I stated that Apple copied from Xerox, I didn't say they stole from Xerox (read my comment again if you don't believe me).

    Read it again. Not sure how you’re not implying it. Could you expound?

     

    But they did copy Xerox and it doesn't matter if they paid for it or Xerox agreed to it or Xerox didn't patent it (or do you think that it is right to steal something if it isn't protected?)


     

    And no, again, they didn’t copy Xerox. Or maybe the creators themselves are lying.

    Ok, thanks for the link, I haven't read that before (interesting view on the state of software development and user interfaces).
    It doesn't change my opinion, but I do see your point. it all depends I think on how you interpret 'copy'.
    I didn't meant a literal copy of course (I mentioned that) but they did copy what they had seen.

    Edit: note that they mention (your second link) that the big jump in interface design was probably after the visit to Xerox (and have no evidence that it was prior art).
