Most people consider Apple to have stolen it. They didn't. The Mac OS was Unix-based, the GUI was changed, and there were completely different software and hardware for the Macintosh. Microsoft didn't copy from Apple either. Microsoft was NOT Unix-based, had different programs, a different GUI, and different hardware.

@jebug29 The Mac OS was *not* Unix-based (until Mac OS X).

@jebug29 oh. well, like i said i don't believe anyone stole ideas from anyone :3 and also the Xerox needed games! XD

Right. Apple wrote their own kernel up until OS X. From what I've read, MS looked more to X/Windows (used on Unix) to model its GUI, though there's no doubt the work at PARC influenced Windows. MS sold its own version of Unix for a time, called Xenix. Charles Simonyi left PARC to work at MS. So he might've brought that knowledge with him, though he's mostly credited for bringing knowledge developed from Bravo (developed at PARC) to Microsoft Word.

lol@erischaot ur so right man... all we got was a prettier GUI and less software.
The good thing about the more ram in computers would be for video/audio editing or engeniering video audio or what ever.
Besides that... i don't get it.
Just shiny GUIS and same shit we've had for years nothing new or revolutionary just memory hogs. I like the new looks just hate the fact its like using XP if it was see through. Not really a new OS change going from XP to Vista just cooler graphics.

This is so amazing. What more do I have today? This ran on a 1 MHz(?) computer with some Kilobytes of RAM and that was it?! From my Gigabytes and Gigahertz PC today I'd expect so much more and it's not there :-( Makes me think...

Metaphor for stretching hasn't changed much :). Nevertheless then, they had only 1MHz.
