A sad irony: Engelbart never made a dime off the mouse. His patents

After only 40 years since the mouse - Now that, with gestures gaining more
traction, Dan coming out with his book (congrats),

FYI - New bond movie makes extensive use of gestural interfaces combined
with Aurora-like semantic associative intelligence and nlp recommendation
engines in the intelligence apps for MI-6.

I bet when folks in the intelligence community watch these movies they drool
before getting back to their customized (cripped) x86 grey boxes with
Win2000 and work with 15 year old MDI applications and Excel to track bad
guys. Must suck for them.

i heard he wanted to put the CIA back on college-ruled notebooks to  
prevent the viruses stuck in the series of tubes from making agents  
sick.
