Sigh...Sigh... You didn't explained how Apple legally infringed on Xerox. If an author writes a story about a boy wizard, where is the line drawn for the next author? Several years after Apple shipped the Lisa, Xerox thought Apple might win a lawsuit against Microsoft so they tried to get in the game. I'm not aware of Xerox calling Apple after the Lisa shipped and telling them that they ripped off their products. I think Steve was pretty quick in claiming that Microsoft ripped him off.
