Hi
I remember reading somewhere that windows gui (Not Windows) was
developed by Xerox way back in early 70's The concept of menu
and other many widgets that is seen today was from their reserch lab.
Also early to implement this technique was Apple Computers way back in
Mid 70's. Of course Unix has its own called CDE based on Motif during
later 70's.
Then in MIT they began a project to implement GUI for unix based system
in 1984 or so and released a stable one in 1986. It was to augument CDE
and Motiff which were commercial.
Hmm.. Long History
