[lots of ranting and raving about how everyone with a GUI is stealing the Apple interface] Oh, please. Surely you realize that Apple lifted the interface from Xerox?? An interesting side note is that Nutek, the folks who make that new Maclone ship set, licensed thier GUI from Xerox, thereby idemnifying it from Apple lawsuits (Xerox sued Apple over that interface and lost). A brilliant move, as the interfaces have already been "proven" to be unrelated. --Andrew Laurence eaeu137@orion.oac.uci.edu
