yes, long before: it came out of Bell Labs, like most IT innovations. Apple put it into the consumer market with the Mac, which M$ then belatedly imitated & faced a lawsuit over. Ballmer is doing the standard Big Lie: attribute to your enemy the very vices or crimes you are guilty of yourself. "He wasn't democratically elected, he's been cracking down on opposition, he's got an overwhelming arsenal of weapons of mass destruction & can't stop trying to obtain more, he keeps threatening other countries": now who does that make you think of, if you don't live in the USA?
