[QUOTE="VitaType, post: 8192590, member: 395549"] What are you talking about? The [I]concept[/I] of personal computer is unrelated to UI (even if you will have a hard time with a PC without UI ;)). Apple did not invent the personal computer nor did it invent the modern UI. It straight up stole the UI from Xerox and marketed as there own. WIMP is no invention by Apple. As for the "concept of personal computer" it wasn't invented by Apple either, it's older then the company itself and they not even where the first to sell "larger" quantities. They were early on when it came to a point of interest for tech interested people (and more affordable for the masses). Apple didn't invented the portable disk-less MP3 player and I don't believe it would have been needed to popularize it. I know serveral people who owned a MP3 player back in the day before Apple launched the iPod. What Apple did was making all music cost the same (at least early on) with iTunes, if that's a good thing or not is a personal decision. Also the idea that Apple would be the inventor of the computer mouse is insane, [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_mouse#History']not even close[/URL]. Looks like a typical case of giving too much credit in an atemp of beeing neutral, never works out. As for the smartphone I totaly give you that point. They did a fantastic job with that. What Apple is really good at is refining things, just look at there trackpads. Still after years you hardly find any trackpads that match the fantastic Apple ones, not even in high priced notebooks. Well it seems they struggle with that here and there in recent times... [/QUOTE]
