yeah funny that, and yet (if i'm not wrong) MACs had GUIs before windows.
Xerox were the first bring on the GUI and then it was Apple (i think).. then
Windows..

Funny thing today, (Don't want to start another thread) I've just noticed
the amount of Windows XP advertising going around with the message "Surprise
Yourself". I laughed so hard... you see, last Saturday I had W2K problems
and a friend gave me Windows XP final release and I installed it.. it would
recognise my USB board and that SURPRISED ME..

Perhaps I should put this in context.  Mr Thurrot's original statement was
"...for copycat OSs such a Linux and Mac OS, etc etc etc".
